testssl: Test a server (run every check) on port 443.

testssl

$ testssl ${example-com}

try on your machine

The command testssl is a tool used for testing and analyzing the security configuration of SSL/TLS-enabled web servers. It performs various SSL and TLS tests to check for any vulnerabilities or weaknesses in the server's configuration.

In the command testssl ${example-com}, ${example-com} is likely meant to be a placeholder for an actual domain name or web server address. You would substitute ${example-com} with the specific domain or IP address you want to test.

For example, if you want to test the SSL/TLS configuration of the website "example.com", you would replace ${example-com} with example.com. The command would then be executed as:

testssl example.com

This would run the testssl tool against the specified web server, providing you with a detailed report on the server's SSL/TLS security configuration.
