Transport Layer Security (TLS) provides secure communication between systems

|
over the internet by encrypting the data sent between them. Certificate validation
|
|
|
|
adds an extra layer of trust and security to this process to ensure that a system
|
|
|
|
is indeed the one it claims to be.

When certificate validation is disabled, the client skips a critical security check.

This creates an opportunity for attackers to pose as a trusted entity and
|
|
|
|
intercept, manipulate, or steal the data being transmitted.
