SSL Error, is it safe?

[soni29]

Hi,
When i go to these sites:

https://chart.donhr.navy.mil

https://cpolst.belvoir.army.mil/public/resumebuilder

I keep getting a Certificate Error, does that mean the site is not safe for entering information? i would have thought a us navy site or army site would be ok, but considering they're asking for private info wasn't sure if it's safe.

I used to get those as well with other .mil sites.

Just make sure you typed the address correctly.

I never had a problem with them not being safe.

The connection to chart.donhr.navy.mil is not secure, and should not be used to exchange sensitive information. Warnings have been disabled for the following problem(s): (1) The certificate is not signed by a trusted authority. (2) Unable to verify the Web site's identity (OCSP error).

Part of the problem is that it looks like they have their own certificate authority, but it's not officially recognized/validated by anyone else.

so it's safe to use? i got those directly from the usajobs.gov site, when i try to apply to a post it redirected me to those sites.

I've trusted the .mil sites i've had to go to in the past, and I would always get that same message.

Take that for what it's worth.
