The main problem is that most of web content it HTTPS, which means it's<br>
hardly cacheable outside of web browsers.<br>
<br>
with https, proxy only sees stream of encrypted data:<br>
the "s" in https means "secure" so no third party sees your data.<br>
<br>
caching it requires decrypting of the connection, which means doing<br>
man-in-the-mittle attack. It requires private certififacion authority<br>
installed on squid and in the browser, and for some domains using CAA<br>
browsers will still complain, or you'll have to fake DNS CAA records, which<br>
is harder with when using DNSSES, DoT or DoH.</blockquote><div> </div><div>In the light of the foregoing, what is the standard way of deploying Squid these days?</div><div>Is the use of the ssl_bump becoming standard or no one needs any caching within Squid these days so that Squid</div><div>has become a tool for filtering and access control only?</div><div> </div></div><div><br></div>-- <br><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div>Best regards,<br>Odhiambo WASHINGTON,<br>Nairobi,KE<br>+254 7 3200 0004/+254 7 2274 3223<br>"<span style="font-size:12.8px">Oh, the cruft.</span><span style="font-size:12.8px">", </span><span style="font-size:12.8px">egrep -v "^$|^.*#" :-)</span></div></div></div></div></div>
