When I try to login to WyoWeb, why is it asking me about certificates?
Certificates are an electronic security feature that helps ensure the security of your data and of the entire WyoWeb system. If pop-up windows appear that ask about certificates for WyoWeb, it is because your browser does not recognize the certificate authority that issued the WyoWeb site certificate. Various browsers will display differently worded messages, but in general, you should accept the certificate to gain access to the WyoWeb site. For more information about certificates and SSL (secure socket layers), see the SSL FAQ (www.uwyo.edu/askit/displaydoc.asp?askitdocid=697&parentid=1) and the Practice Safe Computing article (www.uwyo.edu/InfoTech/aboutit/newsletter/winter2005.htm#safe) in the winter 2005 IT newsletter.
