SSL checker methodology

What this tool measures, what it does not, and how a score or grade is produced.

What we measure

The certificate presented on port 443: issuer, subject, SAN list, dates, protocol and whether it appears self-signed.

What we do not measure

Full CA/Browser Forum compliance, EV visual treatment in a given browser, or whether the site's content is trustworthy.

How we calculate this

This tool does not assign a grade. Expiry days are a calendar countdown, not a security score.
