Got acquired by a Fortune 500 and recieved new laptop. First hour I'm seeing TLS errors everywhere except the browser. They'd half-baked their internal CA rollout, so wasn't trusted properly. By day two I started validating their setup. The CA literally had a typo in the company name, not a great sign. A quick check with badssl.com showed that any self-signed(!) cert was being transparently MITM'ed and re-signed by their trusted corporate cert. Took them 40 days to fix it. Another fun side-effect of this is that devs will just turned off TLS verification, so their codebase is full of `curl -k`, `verify_mode = VERIFY_NONE`, `ServerCertificateValidationCallback = () => true`, ... Exactly the thing you want to see at a big fintech company /s | ||
