Certificates Are Expiring Fast. Are You Ready?

The industry is cutting certificate lifespans by nearly 90%. If you're buying certificates one at a time, this changes what you have to do and how often you have to do it. What this means for you:

You'll buy more often. Every certificate you own turns into a recurring purchase, not an annual one.
You'll validate more often. Validation reuse drops to 10 days by 2029. You'll re-prove ownership every time.
You'll have less room for error. One missed renewal means browser warnings, a down site, and lost sales. 81% of organizations already hit a certificate outage in the past year.
Spreadsheets and calendar reminders won't keep up. What was a once-a-year task becomes a standing operational job.

Today you're buying a certificate that expires in 200 days. By 2029, it'll expire in 47.

That means more certificates to buy, more renewals to track, and more chances to miss one and take your site offline. Automation is how you stop managing certificates one at a time.
