How can Slicer be configured to cooperate with institutions that enforces SSL bumping and use self-signed certificates at the Firewall?

This topic is discussed extensively here:

Sandbox module cannot be downloaded via extension manager today?

At the time it was implemented, it was the simplest way to have certificates across all platform. The Slicer.crt is generated from the Mozilla certificates similarly to the ones distributed through python-certifi. They are also automatically maintained up-to-date using the update-slicer-certificate-bundle.yml GitHub workflow. We could revisit this so that Python, CURL and Qt all use certificates when from the system store on platform supporting it.
