FAQS
What is an SSL certificate?
An SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) certificate is a digital certificate that authenticates a website's identity and enables an encrypted connection between the web server and a user's browser, keeping sensitive data secure.
Why is it important to check my SSL status?
Regularly checking your SSL status helps ensure your certificate is valid, matches your domain, and hasn't expired. An expired or mismatched certificate displays security warnings to visitors, leading to lost traffic and trust.
How do I fix a "Domain Mismatch" error?
A domain mismatch occurs when the domain name you are visiting is not listed in the certificate's Common Name (CN) or Subject Alternative Names (SANs). You can resolve this by re-issuing the certificate to include all necessary domains.
What does the Signature Algorithm mean?
The Signature Algorithm determines the cryptographic hash functions and encryption methods used by the Certificate Authority to sign the certificate. Modern secure websites typically use SHA-256 with RSA or ECDSA encryption.
What are Subject Alternative Names (SANs)?
SANs are an extension in SSL certificates that allow you to secure multiple domain names, subdomains, or IP addresses under a single certificate instead of purchasing separate ones.
How often do SSL certificates need renewal?
Most commercial SSL certificates are valid for 1 year, while free certificates (like Let's Encrypt) are valid for 90 days. It is highly recommended to set up auto-renewal to prevent service disruption.
