TT FIX SSL Certificate Update
For customers whose FIX engine natively supports SSL encryption, or who have implemented FIX session encryption using STunnel, TT provides a TTFIX.crt file with the public certificates used by the TT® platform FIX endpoint.

Note: Customers do not need to make any changes at this time, as this update simply removes expired certs.

>> Removed TTNET 7x STAR.CLOUDTTNET.COM expiry Apr 20 2020 (NS)
