Heartbleed bug: Check which sites have been patched

Heartbleed bug: Check which sites have been patched

CCRadminTechnology News

We compiled a list of the top 100 sites across the Web, and checked to see if the Heartbleed bug was patched.

The Heartbleed bug is serious. Disclosed less than two days ago, the Heartbleed bug has sent sites and services across the Internet into patch mode.

For an in-depth explanation of what exactly Heartbleed is, and what it does, read this post by our own Stephen Shankland. In essence, the bug potentially exposed your username and password on sites like Facebook, Google, Pinterest, and more.

Using Alexa.com, we’ve been going through the list of the top 100 sites in the US and asking “Have you patched the Heartbleed bug yet?” Once we have an answer, we will fill in the chart below with the response.

While we wait to hear back, we will be testing the sites against the Qualys SSL Server Test. There may be some instances where the patch isn’t detected or a server can not be inspected (the site may be fine, but Qualys can not confirm that), in which case we will mark the site as “be on alert.” When a site is marked as such, you should proceed with caution and contact the site or company directly if you have any questions pertaining to your account security.

You may notice some companies will be marked as “was not vulnerable.” In that case, the site in question does not use the type of OpenSSL encryption this bug was based on and your data was never at risk.

If you’re checking back after seeing earlier versions of this story, you may also notice that some statuses have changed. For instance, the status for Microsoft, MSN, and Live has been updated to “was not vulnerable” once Microsoft confirmed that to be the case.
