Explanation

A decryption policy with the action of "No Decryption" means that the firewall will not decrypt SSL/TLS traffic. However, it still provides protections related to SSL/TLS inspection, such as the ability to check certificate validity (e.g., expired certificates, untrusted issuers, etc.). This helps the firewall enhance security by blocking access to websites that use potentially insecure or compromised certificates.
