SSL - Error - How to go "around" it

Anonymous

Hi There

I have the following problem, while accessing a website from a partner

Error Message:

ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH

Unsupported protocol

The client and server don't support a common SSL protocol version or cipher suite.

Google Chrome lets me open the page, but tells me: "Your connection to this site is not fully secure". 

I know, that the website uses an "outdated" security configuration. But this partner may not so fastly change that. Is there a possibility to tell Edge kind a list of websites, where he can ignore that? To disable this feature completely is not a solution in my opinion. (to manage a "whitelist also not, but it is the smaller pain)

Other suggestion? (other Browser is also no opinion and with Internet Explorer 11 it does not work :-( )

Kind Regards

David

    You can use firefox Firefox: about:config "tls" > security.tls.version.min=1. Reset to 3 after completion.

    1. Install Firefox.
    2. Type "About:config" in the address bar and hit return.
    3. Click "Accept the risk" and continue.
    4. Type "tls" in the search bar and hit return.
    5. Click the pencil icon at the far right of "security.tls.version.min" to edit the cutoff setting prevening your login, which is currently 3.
    6. Type "1" and hit return.

    Hi David,

    Had the same issue you are having and also tried other browsers (e.g. Microsoft Edge) to no avail. For context, I'm using a Windows 11 laptop and always browse on Chrome.

    Here's what worked for me:

    1. Uninstall your network adapter (Device Manager --> Network Adapters --> [look for your network adapter] --> [right-click] --> Uninstall Device [make sure to check the box "Attempt to remove the driver for this device"])
    2. Restart your computer
    3. Vua-la 🙌

    Reason this (seems to) work: some old enterprise networks are running outdated stuff (for simplicity's sake 😂) and your computer's network adapter might not be cooperating with the network you're trying to connect to. I'm no network admin; just love to tinker and figure things out, so take what I say with a grain of salt.

    Let me know if that works!

    Best,
    Aviel
