tls inspection

TLS inspection is a security practice where network devices like proxies, firewalls, and VPNs intercept and examine encrypted traffic. On WindowsForum.com, discussions focus on how TLS inspection can break Windows Update by interfering with certificate trust and traffic validation. Microsoft's guidance warns that treating Windows Update as ordinary HTTPS and failing to pass update subdomains through untouched can cause failures. For IT admins, the key is balancing security inspection with Microsoft's trust model to avoid disrupting updates.
