Certificate Patrol

Assegnate 4 su 5 stelle

For all the negative reviews about sites that change their certificates too often or use multiple certificates: the app has an option to check just the Certificate Authority (CA) that issued the certificates to make sure it hasn't changed. You just have to check the box on the warning popup so it can't get much easier. For sites that use multiple certificates from different CAs there is the "nuclear" option of ignoring a host completely. I wish websites were consistent and used the same certificate on all servers for all subdomains. That being said, it would be REALLY nice if the app allowed the approval of multiple certificates for a domain.

As others have noted there are a lot of warning popups because many sites are prematurely updating their certificates because SHA-1 has been deprecated (superseded and discouraged since it is no longer considered safe) and the SHA-2, variant SHA-256, is the new minimum. (I wish the new minimum was SHA-3 so we won’t have to repeat this later when SHA-2 is deprecated.) Since Firefox, Chrome, Microsoft, and others have generally set the deadline for 2016 most websites should have upgraded by now and the popups will be greatly reduced.

As I said earlier, the most helpful feature to add would be to store multiple certificates for a domain. Most importantly it needs to be updated to be e10 compatible for multiprocess or it will no longer be compatible with newer versions of Firefox.

Moonlight TLS Control [Beta]

Assegnate 4 su 5 stelle

This extension does what it says, scans the website and allows you to apply the highest cipher suite level to use.

Unfortunately it is a manual process for each site and doesn't remember sites that have already been scanned. For the extension to be truly useful it needs to have that feature and automatically scan new sites. It would also be nice if it disabled lower TLS versions if 1.2 is supported as well as testing and requiring Secure Renegotiation if supported.

IPvFox

Assegnate 4 su 5 stelle

This is a good app but I prefer SixOrNot, for a couple of reasons. Contrary to the description of this add-on, SixOrNot uses both the actual connections and DNS info to provide the most comprehensive information available. You can verify this in the SixOrNot panel that unlike the IPvFox Panel shows the number of connections to each domain and address. It also shows addresses you're not connected to, i.e. the IPv6 if your ISP, like Bright House Networks, has been too slow to adopt it since its release in 1998.

Two things that I like better in SixOrNot are the icons that I find are more visible and easy to read on large displays or if you don't have perfect vision. The other is that the icon can optionally be moved out of the address bar to another location.

As I said earlier, this is a good app, but I feel SixOrNot is a better choice for those wanting the more information it provides, easier to read icons, and/or customization options.

Test Site for Me (HTTP, FTP) v1.0

Assegnate 1 su 5 stelle

I love the concept but it appears to no longer work. I checked testsitefor.me and it's an unregistered domain.
