The HTTPS protocol has the potential to protect web users from network attackers, but real-world deployments must cope with misconfigured servers, causing imperfect web sites' and is an app in the web browsers category. There are eight alternatives to ForceHTTPS for a variety of platforms, including Mac, Windows, Linux, Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome apps. The best ForceHTTPS alternative is HTTPS Everywhere, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like ForceHTTPS are Smart HTTPS, KB SSL Enforcer, SSL Enforcer and HTTPS Always.
