Security of logins and passwords from sites in the local network?

Can they find out logins and passwords from sites (for example, a google account) if you access the site through a proxy in the company's local network? That is, the admin will be able to find out the login and password, or is it necessary to sniff the traffic?

If you enter passwords on a device that you do not administer (and your work computer is usually such a device), your passwords can be stolen in a variety of ways:

  • keylogger
  • cookie hijacker or LocalStorage
  • organization's private certificate in the certificate store

Conclusion: At work, you need to do work. If you need to use an account somewhere for work, your employer must provide you with an account. If you still need to use a personal account (which creates a huge pile of problems for both parties), you bring your device and log into the account from it.

If you go to resources using the https protocol (now it is 100% of popular resources), then no. Doesn't know.
