SSL Checker
Check SSL/TLS certificate details for any domain. Verify expiry, issuer, SANs, and security strength instantly.
SSL Grading
Get an A+ to F security grade based on protocol version, key strength, certificate chain, and header configuration.
Live TLS Handshake
We connect directly to your server to fetch the raw certificate data — no cached or stale information.
Security Headers
Full audit of 10+ security headers including HSTS, CSP, X-Frame-Options, Permissions-Policy, and CORS policies.
Instant Analysis
Certificate details, fingerprints, SANs, warnings, and recommendations in a single comprehensive report.
Professional SSL Checker for Everyone
Ensure your websites and APIs are secure with our comprehensive SSL Checker tool. Instantly validate SSL/TLS certificates for any domain and get detailed information including certificate issuer, subject, validity period, Subject Alternative Names (SANs), certificate chain depth, TLS protocol version, and cipher suite. The tool warns you about expiring certificates, expired certificates, and self-signed certificates that browsers will flag as untrusted. Whether you're a system administrator monitoring certificate health, a developer debugging HTTPS issues, or a security auditor verifying certificate compliance, our tool provides the real-time certificate inspection you need.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about our SSL Checker tool.
What information does an SSL certificate contain?
An SSL certificate contains the domain name (CN), the issuing Certificate Authority, validity dates, Subject Alternative Names (SANs), public key, and the certificate chain linking back to a trusted root.
Why is checking SANs important?
Subject Alternative Names (SANs) list all domains and subdomains the certificate covers. If your domain isn't listed in the SANs, browsers will show a security warning even if the main CN matches.
What is a self-signed certificate?
A self-signed certificate is one where the issuer and subject are the same entity. These certificates are not trusted by browsers and should only be used in development or internal environments.
How often should I check my SSL certificate?
It is recommended to monitor your SSL certificates at least monthly, and more frequently (weekly) as certificates approach their expiry date (within 30 days) to avoid unexpected lapses in security.
How is the security grade calculated?
The grade is a composite score based on TLS protocol version (TLS 1.3 is best), key size (2048+ bits), certificate chain completeness, days until expiry, self-signed status, and the presence of critical HTTP security headers like HSTS, CSP, and X-Frame-Options.
