security certificate

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

I would like to know if this issue occur on Different Web browsers too?

I would suggest you to try the following steps, when you access secured website you may get this error message.

1. Open Internet Explorer and verify that the page you are trying to view is listing a certificate error.

2. To clear the certificate error goes to Tools --> Internet Options from the menu of IE 11.

3. Click on the advanced tab and scroll down to the security section. Clear the boxes for: "Check for publisher's certificate revocation" and "Check for server certificate revocation".

4. Click Apply and Ok.

5. Attempt to reload the page by clicking the Refresh button at the end of the address bar or by pressing the F5 key. Your page should now load as expected.

This error can be cause by the SSL certificate of the website – maybe it was not issued by a trusted Certification Authority on the client side. It could even be an attempt to fool you or intercept data you send to the server. Or maybe the certificate has
expired.

I suggest you to refer to the Microsoft help article and check if it helps.

Hi David,

Getting the error message that says the site is using an invalid security certificate may be caused by missing certificates or could be due to web browser cache issues. To sort out this problem, try manually installing the missing certificates and deleting

• Click the Certificate Error to open the information window.
  
• Click View Certificates, and then Install Certificate.
• On the warning message that appears, click Yes to install the certificates.

Clearing browsing history.

• Launch Internet Explorer.
• Click Tools (gear icon) on the top-right corner, then select
  Internet Options.
• Under General > Browsing history, click Delete.
• Tick the box for Temporary Internet files and website files.
