Cloud Edge acts as a private Certificate Authority (CA) and generates certificate for SSL decryption, which applies to SMTPS, POP3S, IMAPS, and HTTPS. However, the default certificate is not signed by a well-known (trusted) CA on the Internet. In this case, end users' browsers always display a certificate warning every time they access an HTTPS website.
To avoid getting the certificate warning, end users need to download and install the CA certificate provided by Cloud Edge on supported browsers.
The following table outlines how to install the CA certificate to the supported browsers.
