Retrieving both sensitive and non-sensitive content in a secure manner

A computer program product embodied in a non-transitory computer readable storage medium for retrieving both sensitive and non-sensitive content in a secure manner, the computer program product comprising the programming instructions for:

• issuing a request to a proxy server to establish a secure connection with a server to retrieve sensitive content comprising a HyperText Markup Language (HTML) index file, wherein said HTML index file is comprised of HTML elements that define aspects of a web page;
• receiving said HTML index file from said server using said secure connection, wherein said HTML index file comprises a first hash value computed by said server;
• issuing a request to said proxy server to establish a non-secure connection with said server to retrieve non-sensitive static content;
• receiving said non-sensitive static content using said non-secure connection;
• generating a second hash value over said received non-sensitive static content;
• accepting said non-sensitive static content in response to said second hash value equaling said first hash value;
• and
• alerting a user that said non-sensitive content was not accepted in response to said second hash value not equaling said first hash value;
• wherein said proxy server caches said requested non-sensitive static content for subsequent usage in response to said proxy server not previously caching said requested non-sensitive static content.

A system, comprising:

• a memory unit for storing a computer program for retrieving both sensitive and non-sensitive content in a secure manner;
• and
• a processor coupled to said memory unit, wherein the processor is configured to execute the program instructions of the computer program comprising:
• issuing a request to a proxy server to establish a secure connection with a server to retrieve sensitive content comprising a HyperText Markup Language (HTML) index file, wherein said HTML index file is comprised of HTML elements that define aspects of a web page;
• receiving said HTML index file from said server using said secure connection, wherein said HTML index file comprises a first hash value computed by said server;
• issuing a request to said proxy server to establish a non-secure connection with said server to retrieve non-sensitive static content;
• receiving said non-sensitive static content using said non-secure connection;
• generating a second hash value over said received non-sensitive static content;
• accepting said non-sensitive static content in response to said second hash value equaling said first hash value;
• and
• alerting a user that said non-sensitive content was not accepted in response to said second hash value not equaling said first hash value:
• wherein said requested non-sensitive static content is cached by said proxy server for subsequent usage in response to said proxy server not previously caching said requested non-sensitive static content.
