CxForward: NxFilter’s HTTPS Block Page Displayer for Edge

CxForward is an Edge add-on specifically developed to circumvent Edge's SSL warning messages when NxFilter blocks a website on HTTPS. Designed with network administrators in mind, it does not compromise security but improves the user experience when a site is blocked, as it provides a proper block page instead of an SSL warning.

User reviews

This extension is a must-have when using the NxFilter Web Filter. As explained in the description CxForward detects when an HTTPS (HTTP was already working fine without the need for an extension) page is blocked by NxFilter and properly redirects you to the block page instead of showing the "Oops No Internet Connection" page or the browser warning you for a potential certificate issue (depending on your NxFilter settings). I've been in close email contact with Jahastech about CxForward and publishing to the Edge store, now that our company has moved over to Edge as our default browser, and they have been extremely helpful accommodating us.
