Why do I see a "connection not secure" message when accessing SystemView?
Sometimes when you try to open SystemView, your browser may show a warning that the connection is "not secure." This can look alarming, but here’s what it actually means:
-
Protected network – SystemView sits behind your health service’s secure firewall. To reach it from outside the network (e.g., working from home), you’ll need to connect through your Virtual Private Network (VPN).
-
Browser warnings – Some browsers may display a "connection not secure" message because of how the VPN routes traffic. You might see options such as Advanced → Proceed anyway before you can continue.
-
Safe to proceed – SystemView itself is secure and always requires your health service login. Your data and connection remain protected.
💡Tip: If you see this message often or are unsure whether it’s safe to continue, contact your health service IT team. They can confirm whether your VPN connection is set up correctly.
