Google and Apple will shortly be enforcing a new industry-wide requirement stating that any two-year security certificate issued after August 30th, 2020 will be distrusted in their browsers.
This will potentially mean that our forum will start showing as ‘untrusted’, even though we renew our certificate on a rolling 30-day contract.
As some of you may know, The VOC Spares Company Limited and the forum website share the same server in order to keep costs down for both parties. Therefore, I’m not entirely sure how this will impact either domain, but rest assured, even if you do get a message saying that the forum or Spares Company website could be unsafe, it’s perfectly safe to visit and do everything that you normally would, until we replace our existing certificate with a new one.
This won’t affect just us, but every other domain on the internet, so you may receive similar messages from other domains that you might visit.
Hope this all makes sense.
