1. A method for retrieving both sensitive and non-sensitive content in a secure manner, the method 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, by a processor, 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;

    alerting a user that said non-sensitive content was not accepted in response to said second hash value not equaling said first hash value; and

    caching said requested non-sensitive static content by said proxy server for subsequent usage in response to said proxy server not previously caching said requested non-sensitive static content.
