Ocsp.NetSolSSL.com Connections While Browsing? – That’s Network Solution’s OCSP Server

If you see connections to ocsp.netsolssl.com while browsing some web site, there’s no need to worry. This connection is done when the browser needs to talk to Network Solution’s Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) server, while getting a the revocation status of an digital certificate.

Here’s how ocsp.netsolssl.com showed up in my network log:

ocsp.netsolssl.com

I think ocsp.netsolssl.com can appear in the browser’s status bar to saying something like “Waiting for ocsp.netsolssl.com” or “Connecting to ocsp.netsolssl.com”.

ocsp.netsolssl.com was created back in January 31st 2005. The domain expires January 31st 2019.
