    Avast 2015 added HTTPS scanning.
    So far, a lot better than some others, it has TLS 1.2, Forward Secrecy ciphers etc. Only thing it's missing from SSL Labs client test is OCSP stapling.
    However it gives no warning at all with a revoked certificate.

    SSL scanning usually requires the device/product to become the CA. In the case of Fortigate, it becomes the issuing authority and this can 'break' websites. Which is why I do not recommend SSL scanning in these types of products. A whole can of worms can be opened with the product being the CA, and intercepting agent, and I don't even want to go there with that.
