title: How to disable WARN when connecting to SQL database in Java
body: <p>In a Java application I'm programming, when I ask the program to retrieve data from an SQL database, it shows this in console : </p>
  
  <p><code>Wed Apr 20 16:57:58 MDT 2016 WARN: Establishing SSL connection without server's identity verification is not recommended. According to MySQL 5.5.45+, 5.6.26+ and 5.7.6+ requirements SSL connection must be established by default if explicit option isn't set. For compliance with existing applications not using SSL the verifyServerCertificate property is set to 'false'. You need either to explicitly disable SSL by setting useSSL=false, or set useSSL=true and provide truststore for server certificate verification.</code></p>
  
  <p>I know that's a lot to read, and I have SSL disabled in the SQL workbench, so I can't figure out how to get rid of the warning or if I should even be concerned about it? Thanks in advance. </p>
