Check SSL/TLS configuration for any domain — verify HTTPS, HTTP redirect, and HSTS headers
Yes, PivaBox SSL Checker is completely free to use. There are no charges, subscriptions, or hidden fees. All checks run in your browser.
No. Browser security restrictions prevent JavaScript from accessing raw SSL certificate details (validity dates, issuer, TLS version). This tool checks HTTP-level indicators: HTTPS reachability, HTTP-to-HTTPS redirect behavior, and HSTS header presence. For full certificate inspection use <code>openssl s_client -connect</code> on the command line.
The grade is based on 3 checks: <strong>HTTPS Reachable</strong> (the site serves content over HTTPS), <strong>HTTP-to-HTTPS Redirect</strong> (visitors on HTTP are automatically redirected to HTTPS), and <strong>HSTS Header</strong> (the Strict-Transport-Security header instructs browsers to always use HTTPS). Grade A means all 3 pass. Grade F means none pass.
