Chrome, Safari and Self-Signed Certificates
|
I ran a column a couple weeks back about browsers and how they handle unsigned certificates. How does Chrome handle them? For that matter, how does Safari handle them, since I forgot to include it in that column? Chrome, at first, is much like Internet Explorer 7; it puts up an impossible-to-miss warning but lets you continue past it:
Then, if you do continue, like Firefox, it keeps a warning present in the address bar. Neat.
Safari is also much like IE 7 in that it pops up a warning dialog box: But when you choose Continue it continues with no visible indicator that anything is different. |
