When connecting to Kaspersky MLAD, the browser displays a certificate warning

Problem

When attempting to connect to Kaspersky MLAD, the browser displays a warning that the security certificate or the established connection is not trusted. The contents of the warning depend on the specific browser being used.

Solution

After Kaspersky MLAD is installed, a self-signed certificate is used by default to connect to the web interface. When using a self-signed certificate, the browser displays a warning that the security certificate or the connection being established is not trusted. To use a trusted certificate, you need to contact a qualified technical specialist of the Customer, a Kaspersky employee, or a certified integrator. An employee can update certificates for connecting to Kaspersky MLAD using the web interface.

You can temporarily use a self-signed certificate to connect to Kaspersky MLAD (for example, during test operation). When using a self-signed certificate, in the browser warning window select the option that lets you continue connecting. After connecting to Kaspersky MLAD, the browser window displays a warning about the certificate. The text of the message depends on the specific browser being used.

If the browser displays a warning after a trusted certificate is installed, then the certificate may have been spoofed by a malicious actor. Contact the Technical Support.
