Small nit: an interception proxy does not protect the user or the site
the user is visiting. Consider, how does an interception proxy
protect you or your bank when you log into your bank and you receive a
session cookie?
The answer is, it does not. In fact, the organization running the
interception proxy is an externality that presents risk to the user
and the bank. A formerly secure channel was broken, and now the
user's {username,password} pair is likely burnt, as is the session
cookie the user received from the bank.
