Verifying server certificates

When Operational Decision Manager is installed, you can go to an application by using a URL from a web browser. The first step to secure the communication is to examine the server certificate.

How to view the server certificate varies depending on your browser. In general, you can look at the server certificate by clicking the lock icon next to the URL in the browser.

When you view the server certificate, check the following information:
  • Domain: the domain name must be the same as the one you intended to have.
  • Validity period
  • Encryption attributes
