TLS Inspector
Inspect TLS handshakes, cipher suites, and certificate chains.
Results are from the PacketWizard server.
What is TLS Inspector?
A TLS/SSL inspector examines the certificate and protocol configuration presented by a hostname so you can verify trust chains, expiry, and handshake behavior.
How it works
PacketWizard connects to the target over TLS, captures certificate chain details, and reports configuration findings relevant to secure service troubleshooting.
Common issues
Certificate name mismatch
The certificate must cover the hostname clients use. Check SANs when www and apex differ, or when a CDN hostname is involved.
Chain incomplete
Missing intermediate certificates cause trust failures in some clients. Compare with Certificate Viewer when you have a PEM bundle.
Frequently asked questions
Is SSL the same as TLS?
In practice people say SSL, but modern HTTPS uses TLS. PacketWizard inspects current TLS handshakes and certificates.
Why did browsers distrust a site that still “works”?
Expired certificates, wrong hostnames, or incomplete chains can fail in strict clients while older systems still accept the connection.
