Google Earth not working with Fortigate

When launch Google Earth, get message that:

Security certificate for play.google.com is not trusted!

With three options:

[ol]
  • Proceed Anyway (Unsafe)
  • Show Details
  • Reject Connection.[/ol]

    Company IT mentioned to click 1 but it says it is unsafe. Why is fortigate making Google Earth unsafe? Does this mean Fortigate people are break into my Google Earth and that is why it is unsafe? OR is Fortigate install spyware and Telemery like Windows in this security certificate?

    Hi,

     

    You might want to check your policies as it can be possible if you misconfigured your device. FortiGate does not make any websites or certificates unsafe. It does what it needs to as per the configuration. You can refer to the below link for more information:

    The bypass method gets around fortigate settings. Now it works fine. No more message about not being safe.
