Inspect a site’s TLS certificate, issuer, subject, validity dates and days remaining where the host allows certificate inspection.
Inspect the TLS certificate presented by a public website so you can see its issuer, validity dates and time remaining before expiry. This helps a site owner identify an expiring certificate before visitors encounter browser security warnings.
The server attempts a verified TLS connection to the domain and parses the certificate returned for that host. The tool reports issuer and dates when the handshake succeeds; it does not test every protocol version, every certificate in a chain or all CDN endpoints. A failed connection needs further investigation rather than an automatic fraud conclusion.
Check a domain you manage and note the certificate expiry date. Repeat after renewal to verify the new date appears. If the result differs from your browser, inspect DNS, hostname and CDN configuration, since different endpoints may present different certificates.
Who uses it, and when
Website owners checking a certificate before it expires, IT teams verifying a renewal deployed correctly, and anyone whose visitors have reported a browser security warning.

Remote checks send only the URL, domain, keyword or entity needed to perform the requested analysis. Do not submit passwords, private URLs or confidential material.
Renewing the certificate but forgetting to restart or redeploy the server. Checking one endpoint when a CDN presents a different certificate. Ignoring intermediate certificates in the chain.
No. Use the result as a practical check or planning aid and verify important decisions with the relevant primary source, provider or professional advice.
