How is a HTTP sensor used to monitor a website?
The HTTP sensor monitors a web server with the HTTP protocol. HTTP is the easiest way to check whether a website (or a certain website element) is reachable. The HTTP Transaction Sensor performs a series of HTTP requests which are sent to the server when a user visits a certain web page.

Which is the server name for HTTPS traffic?
Today most HTTPS traffic uses Transport Layer Security (TLS). HTTPS traffic often reveals a domain name. For example, when viewing https://www.wireshark.org in a web browser, a pcap would show www.wireshark.org as the server name for this traffic when viewed in a customized Wireshark column display.
Is there a way to decrypt HTTPS traffic?
Decryption is possible with a text-based log containing encryption key data captured when the pcap was originally recorded. With this key log file, we can decrypt HTTPS activity in a pcap and review its contents. Today, we will examine HTTPS activity from a Dridex malware infection.
Why do we rarely see HTTP traffic on websites?
However, as security became an increasing concern, websites started switching to HTTPS, and now we rarely see HTTP traffic from web browsing. HTTPS is essentially an encrypted communications tunnel containing HTTP traffic. These tunnels first used Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) as an encryption protocol.
