• Security threat Your connection is not secure. Fixing Firefox error "Your connection is not secure"

    A pop-up message telling you that your connection is not secure is a fairly common occurrence online. It does not depend on which browser you are using - Chrome, Opera, Mozilla or Yandex. It also does not depend on what device you are using – desktop (computer or laptop) or mobile.

    As soon as such a failure occurs, the browser immediately warns you to be careful so that attackers cannot steal your personal information (for example, your number bank card, series and passport number, etc.). About how dangerous the message is"Your connection is not secure“What are the reasons for its appearance, and how to fix the problem, we will talk later in the article.

    What does "Your connection is not secure" mean?

    So, let's try to find out what is hidden behind such a scary message at first glance. First, calm down - all your information is still securely protected. This is just a warning - you have not been hacked and nothing has been stolen from you. In addition, you should not blame the router or the quality of the connection - these aspects have nothing to do with this situation.

    Message " » is always displayed only on those pages that operate using the https protocol. Such web resources use a special . It helps protect all information that users enter on the site for one reason or another (bank card number for purchasing in an online store or login and password to log into an account). Today there are a lot of sites using such a certificate. These are also popular social media, and online stores, and pages of banking organizations.


    It would seem that an SSL certificate should only be useful. But not everything is so simple. Sometimes the system fails when checking SSL. In such cases, the browser or personal computer cannot cope with processing the information and after a certain amount of time produces an error.

    Reasons for failure

    Reasons why the phrase “» huge amount. A few years ago, the main reason for such a notification was a failure in the date and time settings. Today, when devices automatically set such parameters, the problem has solved itself. However, various types of failures occur periodically, requiring manual establishment of the correct dates and current time of day. In this case, a notification pops up on the website stating that the clock on the device is lagging behind.

    To fix the problem, hover over the time (in the lower corner) with the mouse and open the settings, where you can set the date, month, year and exact time in your region.

    So, date and time are no longer the reason for the lack of security when connecting to a web resource. So what then precedes the appearance of such a message? Here are some of the main factors you should pay attention to:

    1. Availability of antivirus or firewall. Such services, as a rule, filter all SSL certificates. Failures in the operation of programs can cause the problem of lack of protection when connecting to the network.
    2. The absence of an antivirus, as well as its presence, may cause a lack of security when connecting to the network. The fact is that with the advent of viruses on personal computer the entire system suffers and suffers constant failures. So be sure to check this aspect.
    3. You haven't installed security updates on your computer for a long time operating system? Well, this may be the reason for the pop-up window. In some cases, such extensions are installed automatically. However, you still need to keep your system updated regularly.
    4. Crashes in the browser itself. Over modern browsers Thousands of people work every day. They will improve programs and get rid of various bugs and failures. However, situations still occur when messages like “"is precisely a failure when starting the browser itself.

    Sometimes the web resource itself is to blame for this problem. It was in his system that something happened that prevented a secure connection. In this case, you just have to wait until the developers fix all the bugs on the site and launch it updated version. But for all of the above reasons, there are several ways to solve the problem. Let's figure out how to resolve the message about no connection security?

    Ways to resolve the “Your connection is not secure” error

    Solve the pop-up message problem "your connection is not secure» can be done both using a browser and outside of it. First, let's look at a simpler option for fixing the error, which involves working exclusively with a computer. Above we talked about several reasons for the occurrence of notifications of this type. Now we will try to find a solution for each of the described points. In this case, experts identify several options for the development of events:

    1. Make sure the message "Your connection is not secure» did not come to you from the site. That is, the problem is not always the network or browser settings. In some cases, a web resource malfunctions, resulting in a similar alert appearing on the screen. This especially happens with new and less promoted pages. To check whether the site is “sagging”, you can try to access it from devices located outside your home (for example, at work from a laptop), or using the mobile Internet from a phone or tablet.
    2. Experienced users, through trial and error, have come up with another method of dealing with this problem. Just try going to the “Internet Connection” section on your personal computer. There you will need to go to properties and write down the new DNS – 8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4. In some situations this method really works.

    3. Some installed programs may cause messages like “Your connection is not secure" Check what programs you installed in lately, and check if there are any suspicious applications among them. For example, many users systematically complain about the Research Bar extension.
    4. By bookmarking a site, you are more likely to access it through them. And if, after going to the bookmark, the web resource notifies you that your connection is not secure, you should try to simply search the site through any search engine and go to it in this way. In some cases, this helps fix the problem.
    5. If you use an antivirus, try disabling it and clicking on the link you need again. The fact is that some security programs do not allow web resources to pass through using the https protocol. Antiviruses are configured to thoroughly scan and filter out unnecessary things. However, they do not always succeed in this - and in this case you can see the message “Your connection is not secure" Let's look at methods to resolve the problem using antivirus programs such as Avast or Kaspersky. In the first security software, you need to open the system settings and open the section “ Active protection" or the "Components" section in more earlier versions. This is where we will work. By clicking on “Configure”, you will need to disable the HTTPS scanning process (just uncheck it). After this, you should save the changes in the settings.

      With antivirus Kaspersky program everything happens according to a similar principle.

    6. Sometimes setting up a proxy server helps solve the problem. In order to implement it, you will need to go to the “Control Panel” section, find the “Internet Options” menu there and click on “Connections” (for a faster transition, you can simply enter the word “proxy” in search bar– the computer will immediately give you desired result). In the “Connections” window that pops up, there will be a “Network Settings” section at the bottom. There you need to select the “Automatic detection of parameters” option.

    7. Everyone knows that viruses are the enemy of any device. And often they are main reason alerts " Your connection is not secure" . There are programs that can quickly scan your personal computer for viruses. (for example, AdwCleaner, Dr.Web). Install them and perform a deep scan to make sure the system is secure.
    8. Make sure VPN is disabled on your device. This is convenient to do if you have downloaded the server separate program. However, sometimes it is built into the browser and works unnoticed by the user. This is what can cause a network failure.
    9. If you are using Windows XP and notice, try installing SP3. What is this? A system update package that will help correct some shortcomings in the operation of the device. If you use other operating systems (Windows 7, 8 or 10), also pay attention to system updates. Most often they are downloaded and installed automatically. However, sometimes failures occur and you need to configure update packages manually.

    If none of the above tips worked for you, and the error does not disappear, there is one simple way to go to the desired site. However, it should be taken into account that this option is not safe. As soon as you receive a message stating thatyour connection is not secure, find the inscription “Advanced” and click on it. The browser will allow you to go to the site, having previously warned that these actions are dangerous to the operation of the system.

    By agreeing to this, you sign that you take full responsibility for your actions and their results. Of course, such manipulations are not dangerous on all web resources. Think of it as a way to bypass some restrictions set by the site owner, your browser or PC.

    You should only be suspicious of pages that ask you to enter some personal data (phone number, address, bank card number, etc.). Under no circumstances provide information about yourself to unverified sites!

    Before you begin to fix the problem, you should understand how serious the system failure was. To do this, experts recommend simply opening the site that generates the error using an anonymous tab. This can be done both on a personal computer and on a mobile device. Incognito mode exists in all modern browsers.

    If the web resource is functioning normally in the anonymous tab, you have several options for solving the problem. All of them are common to all browsers and allow you to quickly solve a similar problem:

    1. Disable any browser extensions that may block certain sites.
    2. . This can be done directly in the program itself.

    Another way to clear the cache is special programs. The most common option among users is considered CCleaner application. It is freely available and works for all browsers. Once you open the program, you will see two tabs: Windows and Applications. By clicking on the second, all downloaded programs will appear in front of you. Select the browser you need and click delete:

    • browser cache;
    • page visit log;
    • download history, etc.

    However, do not forget that each individual browser has its own operating characteristics and its own reasons for system failure. Therefore, in addition to universal methods elimination similar mistake, there are also more specific techniques for a particular program. Let's take a closer look at how to get rid of the message "Your connection is not secure" in Google Chrome , Mozilla, Opera and Yandex Browser.

    First of all, you need to say a few words about what causes this error. Some sites that require confidential user data have a secure connection type of HTTPS. In order to guarantee the user that his personal information will not fall into the hands of intruders, the site mandatory must receive a special security certificate.

    Thus, when visiting a secure site, Google Chrome must check the presence and relevance of security certificates. And if the verification was not carried out successfully, the error “Your connection is not secure” appears on the user’s screen.

    Method 1: Set the correct date and time

    This method has almost lost its relevance, since if the wrong date and time are set on the computer, the browser will directly indicate this to you.

    The fact is that the safety certificate has a certain expiration date. And if this period does not coincide with the date and time set on your computer, the web browser blocks the transition to the site and displays a connection error.

    Pay attention to the lower right area of ​​the computer window and check whether the date and time on the computer are correct. If not, then for Windows 10 press the key combination Win+I to open the window "Options" . For lower versions of this operating system, you will need to go to "Control Panel" .

    In the window that appears, run the following command:

    ipconfig /flushdns

    Method 8: Manual DNS Setup
