Why does Chrome keep telling me websites are not secure?

The reason you are seeing the “Not Secure” warning is because the web page or website you are visiting is not providing an encrypted connection. When your Chrome browser connects to a website it can either use the HTTP (insecure) or HTTPS (secure).

Why would my connection be unsecure?

If you get a warning “Your Wi-Fi connection is unsecured”, then you have connected to an unprotected wireless network. Information transferred through this network will be unencrypted. This means that your logins, passwords, messages, and other sensitive information can be intercepted.

Can you get hacked from unsecure wifi?

Hackers can also use an unsecured Wi-Fi connection to distribute malware. If you allow file-sharing across a network, the hacker can easily plant infected software on your computer.

What happens if WIFI is not secure?

It means there's no special login or screening process to get on the network, which means you and anyone else can use it. What that means to you is that there's no guarantee of security while you use that network (unsecure = not secured).

How to know if a website is safe?

A secure URL should begin with “https” rather than “http.” The “s” in “https” stands for secure, which indicates that the site is using a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) Certificate. This lets you know that all your communication and data is encrypted as it passes from your browser to the website's server.

Why is Chrome giving me a security warning?

Why is a website suddenly not secure?
