Hello,
The negotiated TLSv1.2 digest produces output that is too wide to be 
signed with an RSA 512-bit private key. Moreover, the 512-bit keys are 
highly susceptible to breaking. The key should be at least 1024-bits, 
and in many cases stronger. Most standards now suggest 1024-bits is the 
bare minimum and 2048-bits recommended.

Regards.
