A quick review of other strings in the Security panel and other places shows that Dev Tools uses Title Case for titles:
Security Overview
Valid Certificate
Secure Connection
Secure Resources
So yes, I agree that the string in question should use title case, too:
Non-Secure Form
A few notes:
1) Google UX writing style guide is at go/material-ux-writing
2) When something isn't defined in our own UX writing style guide, we follow AP (Associated Press) style (with one notable exception: serial commas). Rules for capitalization will vary depending on the style manual.
3) Title Case for titles diverges from Google UX sentence-case style. But capitalization style rarely causes comprehension issues. Generally, for legacy UI, we leave it as is, as long as the style is consistent.
4) In reviewing the Dev Tools UX for this bug, I noticed a few places where the use of title case is not correct, and it does look strange. See Audits panel. Would it be feasible for me to sit w/an engineer at some point, run through the screens, and just fix these little nits quickly? :)
Tested this issue on Windows 7,Mac 10.12.4 & Ubuntu 14.04 using chrome dev #60.0.3107.4 as per comment#3.
Observed below in the Security panel of Dev tools.

Security overview

Secure resources
Still observed inconsistent capitalization as above(second word starting letter displayed in lowercase instead of Uppercase)which is not as intended in comment#3.
