Chrome security warnings

We received a notice from Google that our URLs will trigger a security warning. Does anyone know if this also includes our Marketo landing pages, or just our main website? Do we need to purchase a Marketo SSL Landing Page Security Package to avoid this?

Below is the message we received from Google.

"Starting October 2017, Chrome (version 62) will show a “NOT SECURE” warning when users enter text in a form on an HTTP page, and for all HTTP pages in Incognito mode.

The following URLs on your site include text input fields (such as < input type="text" > or < input type="email" >) that will trigger the new Chrome warning. Review these examples to see where these warnings will appear, so that you can take action to help protect users’ data. This list is not exhaustive."

TIA

If you embed Marketo forms on a secure 3rd-party page (i.e. if your main website is secure) with the standard embed code, then you won't have the warning.

If you don't secure your Marketo LP domain, then you will have the warning when you use named or embedded form elements there.

(Yes, or you can run LPs via your own CDN to avoid the SSL onboarding and ongoing fees.)

I'm looking in to this, as well.  Can you expand on what you mean by "run LPs via your own CDN"?  Is there a way to utilize Marketo LPs without hosting them on the Marketo LP domain for our organization?

Yes, you can serve Marketo LPs via a 3rd-party CDN such as Amazon CloudFront. I wouldn't have any reason to recommend this were it not for the $$$ Marketo charges for SSL support.

Hi @Steph Anderson​

Chrome's update will apply to all web pages, including your Marketo landing pages. If you have an SSL cert in your own website securing those pages, your visitors won't get that warning from Chrome. However, your Marketo pages aren't hosted on your website, so they wouldn't have the SSL security unless you have an SSL cert added in Marketo.

We have a doc relating to this change here: Upcoming Changes to the Chrome Browser

Hope that helps!
