Hello,

Hello,
Sslstrip was born of a simple observation:
The majority of users do not look at the URL displayed in the address bar of their browser, and when it appears to them an error message most of the time they click on ok without knowing what they do.
The users rely on an impression, a feeling, a feeling based on what they see
- indicators that say the page is secure
- with a padlock icons that appear here and there
- the address bar that changes color
when these elements are present, the user thinks that the page is secure.

Hello,
I agree with the above post, I would like to add. When one wants to tackle the https, the goal is to maintain confidence and not to arouse the suspicion of the user by displaying a warning message saying that the certificate was not issued by an authority approved or that sort of thing that might seem abnormal. In short, to trick the user should not it output of warning messages, and must maintain it in a visual environment that will let him think he is on a secure site.

Hello,
The majority of users who surf the web have already heard this word: https (hyper text transfer protocol secured). It stands for secure connection and encrypts sensitive data on websites such as banking, to avoid any interception of data. Thanks to a system of certificates, the browser will be able to ensure that the website to which it is connected to is who they claim to be. A trusted third party is used for this, it is called the CA (certificate authority).

Hello,
Also more information on this, by comparing the site's certificate on which it is connected and the CA certificate (the trusted third party) that the browser will ensure that is connected to a secure site. The default port for https is port 443, while the default port for http is port 80 classic. Once connected to https, the information will pass between the browser and web server are encrypted via SSL (secured socket layer) encryption protocol to enable highly secure data.

Hello,
First install (demo done on Backtrack 3 Final):

ssl-0.x.tar.gz
tar xvzf ssl-0.x.tar.gz
cd / ssl-0.x
python setup.py install

The app is installed, it will have to enable ip forwarding and redirect http traffic with iptables:

echo "1"> / proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

I guess this is what you are looking for
