What is SSL Checker?

SSL/TLS certificates encrypt traffic between browsers and servers, proving site identity. An SSL checker retrieves certificate details: issuer, validity dates, SAN domains, chain completeness, and protocol support. Essential for debugging HTTPS issues, monitoring expiry, and verifying deployments.

Expired certificates cause browser warnings that destroy user trust and SEO rankings.
