For those of you that use a PGP encrypted laptop you may have been seeing errors after last weekend. The security certificate on the PGP server expired and was replaced. For an unknown reason it is not recognized as valid. As a result, users are reporting seeing a certificate expired error message after login with options to “View Certificate,” “Always Allow for This Site”, “Allow”, and “Deny” as seen in the below screenshot. You will want to select “Always Allow for This Site”.

At this time it is unknown how long this may persist. UFIT is attempting to figure out why the PGP console considers the certificate invalid and will implement a fix when one is discovered. For now, simply clicking “Always Allow for This Site” will prevent the alert from appearing again. This will have to be done on each device you use that is PGP encrypted.
