| 2016 || {{dts|September}} (completion), November 29 (announcement) || Website || Default HTTPS-only || The Guardian || ''The Guardian'' announces that it completed its migration to HTTPS-only about two months ago. The announcement post describes the challenges of the migration, including avoiding negative audience and revenue impacts, and keeping older interactive content working. The migration approach is summarized as: migrate one small audience section to HTTPS, identify the problems and track them, and fix the problems that need to be fixed before the next section migration. Three complementary techniques used: monitoring, decoupling backend and frontend migrations (with backend migrations done first), and usage of early adopters (users could opt in to HTTPS-only before moving to default HTTPS-only). Technical details of the migration are also included in the post.<ref>{{cite web|url = https://www.theguardian.com/info/developer-blog/2016/nov/29/the-guardian-has-moved-to-https|title = The Guardian has moved to HTTPS.
