HTTPS Everywhere for the U.S. Government

The American people expect government websites to be secure and their interactions with those websites to be private.

This site contains a web-friendly version of the White House Office of Management and Budget memorandum M-15-13, "A Policy to Require Secure Connections across Federal Websites and Web Services", and provides technical guidance and best practices to assist in its implementation.

Read the policy.

Please open an issue to leave feedback or suggestions. Pull requests are welcome to pages other than the homepage, which shows the final policy and is not subject to change through GitHub.
