Troubleshooting FAQs

Windows Reseller Web Hosting Plesk Troubleshooting FAQs

I am getting warning Your connection is not private

Solution :

If you are getting the error ” Your connection is not private” while accessing the control panel it may be due to the open ssl certificate installed in the the server

Please note that Open SSL is used in the server side for your protection only. We force our users to use ssl while accessing Plesk or webmail to make sure that their login details are safeguarded. Consider a situation where your system is infected with malware. When you login to whm or webmail, your login will be sent to the remote attacker and he can use that to deface all your websites. Now when SSL is enabled, even if your system is infected, it will encrypt your login details and hence the remote attacker cannot get your login details. In short, forcing SSL does more good than harm. Why other hosting providers do not do this, because, they leave your account security to you.
