Is Google SSL down right now?
This page answers whether Google SSL is down by checking the certificate google.com serves, live and from outside, rechecked every hour. Most "is it down" pages ping the homepage; a broken or expired certificate is a different failure, and it is the one this page watches.

Common questions
Is Google SSL down right now?
No. At the last check the certificate google.com serves was valid, and it expires on 2026-10-28. Google SSL is up.
How does this page know if Google SSL is down?
A CertPost probe opens a real TLS connection to google.com on port 443, the same way a browser does, and reads the certificate. The result is cached and rechecked every hour, so this reflects the healthy state seen at the last check, not a guess.
Is this the same as Google being down?
Not always. A site can be reachable while its certificate is broken, or down for reasons unrelated to SSL. This page measures only the certificate google.com serves. For the full certificate detail, see the Google certificate status page.
