BA site security certificate?
 
Hi I just looked at...

https://idtravel.ba.com

...and it came back with a security certificate error. It said it might be a different website pretending to be the BA site. Has anybody else seen this and know if it is safe to use it?

So it is issued to stafftravel.ba.com - that's still part of the ba.com domain, and is for the purposes of staff travel.

It is in date and issued by RSA (a genuine top-level CA).

No problem - but why not tell the webmaster that they have made a boo-boo with the site name?

Good on you for the caution, though. :ok:

I have just sent them an email! As you say, it does look like it is real. I suppose if it had been issued to a domain such as:

www.I'mgoingtostealyourinformation.com

then best to exercise caution :E


Thanks....

One of our pc's in the hangar keeps giving that notice on the intranet let alone anything else. It must be a hiccup in the software somewhere.
