Abstract :
In this paper, we propose a new approach to preventing the SSLstripping attack, CAT+S. Through the analysis of existing solutions and a user survey, we determine how to better protect users from the SSLstripping attack and provide stronger overall protection even when the SSLstripping attack is not a factor. The details of CAT+S design and implementation are then described and discussed. Finally, we consider future work and problems that are yet to be solved.
