Simple program to check the amount of port 80 traffic compared to port 443 traffic.
Tested on Windows 10 x64.
- Install WinPcap if it's not installed yet
- You may have to install the Visual C++ Redistributable for VS 2017
- Download dist/HowMuchTLSx64.zip
- Unzip the file from step 2 and start HowMuchTLS.exe
- Visit some TLS-encrypted and unencrypted websites, the pie slices should reflect those visists
It's kind of simple and stupid. Libpcap is used to filter out traffic going to port 80 and port 443. Qt is then used to create a piechart that shows the relative amount of secure traffic compared to unsecure traffic. Port 80 can be used for secured traffic while 443 can be used for unsecured traffic. So there is no 100% guarantee that the traffic to those ports is really secure/unsecure. There's no inspection of the traffic itself.
HowMuchTLS is developed in Visual Studio 2017. The program depends on Qt >= 5.9 and WinPcap >= 4.1.3.
