SSL Errors By Browsers

Today SSL Certificates are used a lot to make sure that the communication between the browser and the server is safe. SSL certificates are being used by both small and big businesses. Today, almost every web and mobile browsers as well as Oss for both platforms support SSL certificates and security algorithms that enhance security levels on both sides of the table.

If you don’t know much about SSL certificates, or if you don’t follow the instructions on how to install them on your web server, you might have problems with SSL certificates. It’s not hard to use SSL to encrypt a website and your browser’s communication, but there are a lot of things that can go wrong with SSL certificates.

When it comes to web browsers, Chrome is now the most popular one. It’s all about giving users speed, security, and trust. Chrome will show multiple SSL Certificate errors when a person tries to use an SSL encrypted page or a site:

This means that Chrome will show errors like the “SSL Certificate is not trusted” error message because the server has a self-signed SSL certificate in place. Web users who try to access the wrong domain name will get an SSL Certificate Mismatch error.

Mozilla Firefox, the second most popular web and mobile browser in the world, makes it easy and safe to use the internet. Firefox is so much faster at telling you when you can’t access a secure website or page because it doesn’t have an SSL Certificate.

This is why Firefox shows the Secure Connection Failed error message: Firefox can’t figure out who the Certificate authority is for the SSL Certificate that is being used. The “This connection is not trusted” message will show up in Firefox if an intermediate certificate was not installed or if Firefox settings were not set correctly.

Users of Internet Explorer, which is owned by Microsoft, can use it to safely surf the web. Visitors to an SSL-encrypted site or page will see multiple types of SSL certificate errors when they try to link to them:

You’ll see the message “Untrustworthy SSL Certificate” if the root certificate is not signed by a trusted certificate authority when you open Internet Explorer. The Invalid SSL Certificate error will show up when someone tries to access a domain name that isn’t correct, and SSL isn’t set up on the computer.
