Sophos XG HTTPS Scanning Certificates

Hi,

I have configured HTTPS decryption and scanning but when I look at the certificate on a website it shows short validity periods, roughly 3 months. Is this normal?

To clarify, the certificate shown is the one issued by the firewall, but it's only showing as valid for roughly 3 months in the browser, but many years when looking at it under MMC on the client PCs.

Kind regards, Mike

    Hi ,

    Thank you for reaching out to the Community! 

    Can you share the screenshots of the certificate that you see on the browser and the client? 

    Thanks, 

  • Hi ,

    Thanks for coming back to me.

    I have attached 4 screenshots, one of which shows the SSL_CA from my XG appliance that has been trusted by my macbook, and the other 3 as below (issued by SSL_CA from appliance):

       - expiring 9 March 2021

       - expiring 19 March 2021

       - expiring 12 February 2021

    I have double checked another couple of client devices and they get the same. Is this normal or have I configured something wrong? This is my first Sophos XG device, and it's not in production yet, so there is time to get it right (phew).

    Kind regards,

    Michael
