Cer­tifi­cate Checking: Google Chrome

These instruc­tions will explain how to check the cer­tifi­cate fin­ger­print of a web­site in a Google Chrome browser.

If you are looking for other browser instruc­tions, you can find these here.

1. Click the lock in the address line.
2. Click Con­nec­tion is secure.
   
3. Click Cer­tifi­cate is valid.
   
4. Select Details tab.
   
5. Scroll to the end of the window and click Thumbprint.
6. The fin­ger­print is ver­i­fied com­paring the char­acter set dis­played with a ref­er­ence set which you will have received from your finan­cial insti­tu­tion. If the char­acter sequence read from the cer­tifi­cate and the ref­er­ence sequence received from your finan­cial insti­tu­tion are iden­tical, this is a gen­uine cer­tifi­cate. Please note when com­paring the fin­ger­print type: The sequence and ref­er­ence sequence must be of the same type (SHA-256 or SHA-1 respec­tively). You will find our partner banks’ cer­tifi­cate fin­ger­prints on our web­site in our article on Cer­tifi­cate Checking.
