Tools SSL checker
SSL checker
Free, no accountCheck the SSL certificate on your mail server or website. You see straight away whether it's valid and how many days it has left, every detail of the certificate and its chain, and, in plain English, who renews it: whether it renews itself or has to be renewed where it was bought.
Free for everyone, up to 20 checks a day. Only the certificate the server hands out is read. Nothing is kept beyond a count for your daily allowance.

// what it checks
What you get.
Valid or not
Expiry with the days left, whether it covers the name you typed and whether browsers and mail apps trust it.
Every detail
Names covered, issuer, dates, key, signature, serial number, fingerprints and the full chain up to the trusted root.
Where to renew it
Who looks after it, from the issuer and the host: renews itself, your web host, or renew where you bought it, with the steps.
