Check an SSL certificate

A site's HTTPS validity, issuer and expiry date.

Why check an SSL certificate ?

An SSL/TLS certificate enables HTTPS (the padlock) and encrypts the connection. An expired certificate shows a security warning that drives visitors away. Watch the expiry date so you can renew in time.
