Swift Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Examine SSL/TLS Server Certificate

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates how an application can examine and check a server's SSL/TLS certificate. Swift

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

    //  This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    //  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    let socket = CkoSocket()!

    //  Connect to a server.
    var useTls: Bool = true
    var maxWaitMs: Int = 2000
    success = socket.connect(hostname: "www.intel.com", port: 443, ssl: useTls, maxWaitMs: maxWaitMs)
    if success == false {
        print("\(socket.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    //  If we get here, the TLS connection ws made..
    //  In any SSL/TLS handshake, the server sends its certificate in a TLS handshake message.
    //  Chilkat will keep it cached within the object that made the connection.
    //  Get the server's cert and examine a few things.
    let cert = CkoCert()!
    socket.getServerCert(cert: cert)

    print("Distinguished Name: \(cert.subjectDN!)")
    print("Common Name: \(cert.subjectCN!)")
    print("Issuer Distinguished Name: \(cert.issuerDN!)")
    print("Issuer Common Name: \(cert.issuerCN!)")

    print("Expired: \(cert.expired)")
    print("Revoked: \(cert.revoked)")
    print("Signature Verified: \(cert.signatureVerified)")
    print("Trusted Root: \(cert.trustedRoot)")

    //  Sample output:

    //  Distinguished Name: C=US, ST=California, O=Intel Corporation, CN=*.intel.com
    //  Common Name: *.intel.com
    //  Issuer Distinguished Name: C=GB, ST=Greater Manchester, L=Salford, O=Sectigo Limited, CN=Sectigo RSA Organization Validation Secure Server CA
    //  Issuer Common Name: Sectigo RSA Organization Validation Secure Server CA
    //  Expired: False
    //  Revoked: False
    //  Signature Verified: True
    //  Trusted Root: True
