About Why No Padlock

Why No Padlock checks a web page served over HTTPS and looks for resources that still load over plain HTTP. Mixed content like this can stop a browser from showing the page as fully secure.

You enter the address of the page and the tool reports the insecure items it finds, so you know which images, scripts or stylesheets to fix. It suits site owners who have moved to HTTPS and still see a warning instead of a padlock.

Strengths

  • Focused on a single common HTTPS problem
  • No installation needed

Limitations

  • Checks one page at a time rather than a whole site
  • Only covers mixed content, not wider security settings
