Can’t connect securely to this page

This might be because the site uses outdated or unsafe TLS security settings. If this keeps happening, try contacting the website’s owner.

Your TLS security settings aren’t set to the defaults, which could also be causing this error.

Good Day I am having issues,  I am getting that message when I try to register to an invitation I got from my employer

Please advise

    This error is often returned for other reasons than those given. However, to ensure that you have the recommended settings for TLS, follow these steps:

    1. Press Windows key + R to open a Run box. Type control and press Enter to open Control Panel.
    2. Select Internet Options and open the Advanced tab.
    3. Scroll down to the Security section and make these selections:

    If the option to Use SSL 2.0 is present, it should not be selected. 4. Click Apply and OK. 5. Close Control Panel.

    These settings will make it possible to connect securely to most reliable websites. If you continue to see the same error, try again later. If there are still problems, they are most probably at the website. Use a Contact us option at the site to draw attention to them.

    We appreciate your response and the confirmation. To troubleshoot, we suggest the following steps:

    1. In the Windows Search bar, type Internet Options.
    2. Open the app and got to the Advanced tab.
    3. In the Security section, scroll down and add a checkmark to the following:                                                                                                            Use SSL 3.0

    Use TLS 1.0

    Use TLS 1.1

    Use TLS 1.2 4. After adding a checkmark, click on Apply then OK to save changes.
