Detected SSL errors

Hyperping automatically detects and reports these common SSL issues:

  • Expired: Certificate expired and is no longer valid. Visitors will see security warnings. The certificate must be renewed immediately to restore secure connections.
  • Revoked: Certificate has been revoked by the issuer and is no longer trusted. A new certificate must be issued.
  • Self-signed: Certificate is self-signed and not issued by a trusted authority. Browsers will show warnings to visitors.
  • No Common Name: Certificate is missing a Common Name field. The server identity cannot be verified.
  • Incomplete Chain: Certificate chain is incomplete, intermediates may be missing. This can cause trust issues in some browsers.
  • Common Name Mismatch: Certificate Common Name (CN) does not match the domain. Browsers will show security warnings to visitors.

Monitor list visibility

All SSL errors and warnings are displayed directly in your monitor list, so you can spot and address issues at a glance.
