Friendly reminder concerning your certificate
« on: April 20, 2016, 04:52:43 PM »
I was working on our certs today and thought I'd take a look at yours.

Your ssl cert is using an outdated algorithm. You should look at using SHA-2 instead. SHA-1 has been outdated since 2015.

Worried about the Chinese intercepting our extremely sensitive FES credentials, John?

Please keep it civil in the upper fora.

Thanks for the heads up. I'm aware of the problem, but it's not very important as we don't send anything particularly sensitive over HTTPS. The certificate expires in a few months anyway, so I'll just renew it then.
when you try to mock anyone while also running the flat earth society. Lol

I bring it up because one of your users came to our site and requested this functionality. I assume it was important to him, so passed it on.
