If you are attempting to access DoD SSL sites (such as ASFI (acquisition.army.mil), DIBBS (dibbs.bsm.dla.mil)), you may receive a warning message stating that you should not proceed. With some browsers (FireFox), you can add an exception to the warning and continue normally. In Chrome, you’ll be stopped dead.

- Within the registration process on www.startssl.com a client certificate had been added to my Firefox for Android. Now I want to backup this client certificate but I have no idea how I could export it in the mobile version.
- May 23, 2016 (as of 23 May 2016) Using your iOS mobile device and its Safari browser, go to the TRADOC App Gateway URL: (if you receive a white-screen-of-death, make sure your Ad Blockers i.e. Purify, Crystal, etc. Are turned off).

As of February 27, 2014, the DoD site supports only IE up to version 10 but not 11. The latest FireFox & Safari browsers will also be able to access the site as before but Chrome will present a warning message.
To get around this, you can install the DoD Root Certificates on your machine. This will allow your Web browser (Chrome, IE, Safari) to trust the identity of Web sites whose secure communications are authenticated by DoD.
Is this required? No, however, this will help you avoid Security Alert windows when you go to secure communication Web sites for various DoD agencies, including DTIC, DIBBS, AFSI. Future access to DoD Web sites may require certificates.
To do this correctly, you should download ALL of the certificates referenced here: http://dodpki.c3pki.chamb.disa.mil/rootca.html and import them into your Trusted Certificate Store. Here’s How (Windows):
