SSL Certificate Industry Change
There’s a pretty big change coming for SSL Certificates. And, we think it’s really important to keep you in the loop on these changes.
The biggest change you need to be aware of: if you have an active SSL certificate with an intranet name (e.g.’server1?, ‘mail’, ‘www’, ‘server2.local’, etc.), or a reserved IP address, it’s going to be revoked by October 1, 2016.
Also, on July 1, 2012, customers will no longer be able to purchase, renew, rekey, or manage their SSLs with intranet names or IP addresses that expire past November 1, 2015.
This is an industry-wide decision, not one specific to our company.
