Addressing the vulnerability of disabled TLS certificate validation primarily involves re-enabling the default validation. To avoid running into problems with invalid certificates, consider the following sections. ==== Using trusted certificates If possible, always use a certificate issued by a well-known, trusted CA for your server. Most programming environments come with a predefined list of trusted root CAs, and certificates issued by these authorities are validated automatically. This is the best practice, and it requires no additional code or configuration. ==== Working with self-signed certificates or non-standard CAs In some cases, you might need to work with a server using a self-signed certificate, or a certificate issued by a CA not included in your trusted roots. Rather than disabling certificate validation in your code, you can add the necessary certificates to your trust store.
