SSL set up

[Pooja.Saraiya]

I am an intern right now who is working as a tableau server admin. My organization is working to try to set up SSL keys with our server https://help.tableau.com/current/server/en-us/ssl_config.thm

How do I know if the certificate of the server I manage is self signed? The certificate seem to have a few issue that cannot figure out. I am learning about SSL so any insights would be helpful.

The website url should be this: https://app-tableau/#/sign

the key certificate is this: http://app-tableau.co.county.ga.us

the actual computer name of the server is this: app-tableau

the certificate is issued to app-tableau.co.county.ga.us

To start with look at issue name if it signed by well known CA like verizon, commodo  digicert etc.

Also if If the subject and issuer are the same ?
