    Are you conflating self-signed and untrusted?

    Self-signed is fine if you have a trusted root deployed across your environment.

      Correct. If using actual pki with a trusted root and private CA, you’re just fine.

      I took the statement to mean ad-hoc self-signed certs, signed by the server that they are deployed on. That works for EiT but defeats any MitM protection, etc.
