If you want to avoid a warning, then yes. That said, is it such a bad thing for enterprises to ramp up the use of HTTPS in their internal networks? This can help prevent some MITM attacks from attackers to breach the perimeter.

Enterprises have the luxury of installing their own certificates on managed workstations.



If other enterprises are similar to the one where I work, the warning will not come up in October. Like all software, we're a few versions back on Chrome. It'll take some time to get up to Chrome 58 :)


It seems that if you plugged into an ethernet port at many companies you'd be able to grab a lot of valuable information due to the lack of HTTPS. The move to SaaS products by departments inadvertently protects the company data in this case while IT teams still rail cloud usage.
