Bad news for the poor Bing. Now days ago I commented on the problems that had the form of Microsoft with search results with malware , but today we played a theme something different.According to several reports, some browsers have been blocking access to Bing because the security certificate the site uses appears to be invalid. If you try to visit the secure version of Bing at the moment, https://www.bing.com/ instead of the standard http://www.bing.com/ , we see that it reports a problem with the SSL certificate similar to as shown in the image below. Any web browser probably will give us a similar warning, this is the one that shows Chrome:
It would be easy to point the finger and say that Microsoft can not handle correctly an SSL certificate, but in this case the giant software is not the culprit. The real culprit is the system that distributes the contents of Bing, by Akamai. In fact, there are other sites that also have similar problems and are cleared by the Akamai network, such as the web of the NBA.
The most amazing thing is that the problem has not been solved in more than 48 hours since it was detected.
