As TLS/SSL certificate lifespans shrink, manual management reaches its limit.
Digital certificates were once valid for up to 398 days. By March 2029, they’ll last just 47 days.
That means renewing monthly, not twice a year. For IT teams managing hundreds or thousands of certificates, doing it by hand won’t keep up.
Lauren Courtenay, Manager: Certificate Services at Altron Security, says automation is the answer. “Automation isn’t just a ‘nice to have’ anymore. It’s a necessity.”
Start with a discovery scan. You’ll see every certificate you have, including the ones you’ve forgotten about. Then automate renewal and installation, with the right policies in place.
