SSL Certificate Checker

Inspect a site's SSL/TLS certificate — issuer, expiry date, and trust chain — via a real TLS handshake.

About this tool

Comprehensive documentation & audit utility guide
Verified Utility

An SSL/TLS certificate is what lets a browser verify it's really talking to the domain it thinks it is, and encrypts the connection along the way. This tool opens a real TLS handshake to the target and inspects the certificate the server actually presents — the same certificate every visitor's browser sees.

A real connection to port 443, just like a browser makes.

3
Review the certificate

Issuer, validity window, trust chain, and every domain it covers.
