SSL/TLS security
Check SSL/TLS configuration for trust and technical risk.
A valid SSL certificate is only the starting point for secure connection. Certificate chain, hostname match, old protocols and TLS policy must also be evaluated.

What SSL/TLS checks cover
VefaSec SSL/TLS checks make certificate, protocol, chain and secure connection signals part of the web security report.
Certificate validity
Start/end date, issuer, subject and hostname match are checked.
Protocol quality
Modern TLS support and old protocol signals are interpreted against security expectations.
Operational risk
Expiring certificates, redirect errors or chain issues are evaluated for downtime and trust loss.
