You can resolve this issue by disabling the SSL scanning in your security software like Avast, Bitdefender, ESET, and Kaspersky. SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER warning is actually an additional layer of security that is mostly enforced by the security software. Identification error is often caused when you land from other sites but this issue should not persist when you try to visit the site directly. This error reflects the fact that the certificate you are currently viewing is for meant for another site. The certificate is only valid for (site name) Let’s take a detailed look at the errors that usually crop up. Your Connection is not secure is one of the common problems on Firefox & in order to troubleshoot, we need to understand the type of connection errors like The certificate is only valid for site, SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER, Corrupted certificate store, SEC_Error_Expired_Certificate, etc. If you intend to make some purchases its highly recommended not to use the website until the warning goes off. However, you can always override the warning and access the website, but it is then that you should understand the consequences of using a vulnerable communication channel.

The best thing would be to hit “ Go Back” button and try to contact the site owner. But this error usually crops up when the certificate validation is not completed, and the encryption is not strong enough. Usually, the URL begins with “ and the certificate provided by the website provides sufficient evidence that the encryption is strong enough. “ Your Connection is not secure” is one such error that will stop you from accessing the sites. However, when something goes wrong, it leads to errors. We need to understand that every browser has its own set of protocols and authentication checks that it applies to all the website. That said be it any browser one is expected to run into peculiar problems, and when this happens, troubleshooting is pretty tough. Moved fro Win 8/8.1 to Web browsing etc applicationsįirefox had been my preferred browser earlier, and even now I keep on balancing between Chrome and Firefox. ~ AnimalĮdited by Animal, 26 March 2016 - 10:49 PM. Is this some kind of censorship? I keep hearing about interference with accessing the web and I do not understand but like I said I know for a fact my bank site is secure but that's one I get the message on and frankly this is b.s.Įdit: Moved topic from Web Browsing/Email and Other Internet Applications to the more appropriate forum, at the suggestion of member that was helping OP.

WHY ALL OF A SUDDEN is this happening and WHY can I no longer agree to their stupid 'I accept the risk' and go to the site. I'm really fed up with Firefox - its seriously impacting my use of my computer because I have sites I want to go to and Firefox is not letting me go there. It says 'Go Back' basically ordering me not to advance further. The SSL certificate had expired on one of my websites so Chrome was giving the Not Secure warning, now the certificate has been renewed and checks ok on two online SSL checkers, shows as secure in Firefox, but still shows Not Secure in Chrome! Avast's HTTPS Scanning interferes with Firefox and other programs.

I have Firefox browser and I'm getting ready to throw it in the can - it used to present me with a way to go around it - to go to advanced and agree basically to say 'I know this isn't secure but I want to go anyway' but now I can't even do that - now I get an error code. I'm really getting ticked off and suspicious - for over a month now I frequently get the message 'Your Connection is not Secure' for sites like my bank that I know darn well are secure - and many other sites - TOO MANY to be an accident.
