Manage VPN Self-Signed Certificates
Instead of obtaining a digital certificate from a CA, you can generate and sign your own digital
certificate. However, a self-signed digital certificate triggers a warning from most browsers
because it provides no protection against identity theft of the server. (The following figure
shows an image of a browser security alert.)
There can be three reasons why a security alert is generated for a security certificate:
• The secu
rity certificate was issued by a company you have not chosen to trust.
• The d
ate of the security certificate is invalid.
• The n
ame on the security certificate is invalid or does not match the name of the site.
When a security alert is generated, the user can decide
whether to trust the host.
