# isAllowUntrustedServer

open fun isAllowUntrustedServer(): Boolean(source)

Specifies whether it is acceptable to communicate with an HTTP build cache backend with an untrusted SSL certificate.

The SSL certificate for the HTTP build cache backend may be untrusted since it is internally provisioned or a self-signed certificate.

In such a scenario, you can either configure the build JVM environment to trust the certificate, or set this property to `true` to disable verification of the server's identity.

Allowing communication with untrusted servers keeps data encrypted during transmission, but makes it easier for a man-in-the-middle to impersonate the intended server and capture data.

This value has no effect if a server is specified using the HTTP protocol (i.e. has SSL disabled).
