cert

This option determines whether Scilab verifies the authenticity of the peer's certificate. If none is given, no verification is performed.

Disabling verification of the certificate allows bad guys to man-in-the-middle the communication without you knowing it. Disabling verification makes the communication insecure. Just having encryption on a transfer is not enough as you cannot be sure that you are communicating with the correct end-point.
