You can click the "Advanced" button to expand this section and show extra details. If the certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate is unknown (SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER) then click the blue error message to expand this section and show the certificate chain.

  • always be cautious when you get an 'Untrusted' error message
  • never create a permanent exception without investigating the cause and only use this to inspect the certificate
