Bolt encrytion

Certificate handling in web browsers

Because of how web browsers handle (self signed) certificates the web browser needs to go to a HTTPS URL and accept / permanently trust the certificate before a secure Bolt connection to the server can be created.

By default Neo4j offers a HTTPS URL on https://localhost:7473.

You will need to manually view (usually by clicking in a broken padlock in the address bar) and trust the certificate to be able to create a secure connection.
