Risk assessment

- Users may receive a browser warning indicating that the connection is not secure due to the use of a self-signed certificate in HTTPS.
- API users may experience issues depending on the tools they use to communicate with the API, as some may not support HTTPS, self-signed certificates or the tooling may have to be reconfigured to adapt to these changes.

Suggested implementation plan
|
- Information included in this PCN will help adapt to the upcoming changes. For more detailed information, please contact your sales representative. Use the following guidance on how to proceed when encountering browser warnings due to self-signed certificates.
