How To Overcome "Security Warning: Untrusted Server Certificate" When Doing A Zoom Meeting

YOGYAKARTA - Zoom Meeting is a very important application during the pandemic, and is widely used for meeting activities, teaching and learning in schools or other things that cannot be done face-to-face.

However, as many users use the Zoom Meeting application, there are several problems that often arise and interfere with the course of meetings, or teaching and learning activities.

One of the problems that often appears is the "Security Warning: Untrusted Server Certificate" warning that often occurs when users have meetings.

Although you can skip it by clicking the "Trust Anyway" column, but these warnings often appear so that users are often disturbed, especially at the same time you are doing a presentation.

Therefore, the VOI team has summarized how to overcome the "Security Warning: Untrusted Server Certificate" that often appears in Zoom Meetings, in the following article.

Quoted from the official Zoom website, the "Security Warning: Untrusted Server Certificate" notification often appears if the connection is on an unsecured server, or the VPN on your device is on.

To solve the problem, users can disable VPN on your device. However, not all cases of these warnings are caused by the VPN.

Another cause that causes "Security Warning: Untrusted Server Certificate" is misaligned device time settings. Therefore, you can check the time on your device and match it.

Although, almost all devices can update the time automatically via the Network Time Protocol (NTP), certain devices still use the local NTP network that has been configured and cannot be accessed from certain locations.

If there is a difference in time synchronization between the two, the user can try to adjust the time on the device manually.

For computers, you can open the "Control Panel" menu and select the "Change date, time, or number formats" option. Next, adjust the time information on the computer to the time zone you are using.

If the time is right and the problem still occurs, the user can try to contact the relevant IT party to request the type of certificate referred to by the notification.

If you have done so, but the notification still appears repeatedly, then you can skip or ignore the notification by pressing "Trust Anyway" which is available at the bottom right, when the warning appears.

"Trust Anyway" is also the easiest step to remove the "Security Warning: Untrusted Server Certificate" notification, because there is no need to change any settings.
