Transport Layer Security (TLS) provides secure communication between systems
|
||
|
|
over the internet by encrypting the data sent between them. The role of
|
||
|
|
certificate validation in this process is to ensure that a system is indeed the
|
||
|
|
one it claims to be, adding an extra layer of trust and security.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When certificate validation is disabled, the client skips this critical check.
|
||
|
|
This creates an opportunity for attackers to pose as a trusted entity and
|
||
|
|
intercept, manipulate, or steal the data being transmitted.
