"Revoke Certificate" - It's theater.

Most revoked certs keep working. Chrome, Firefox, Safari each block different revoked certs. The industry knows it's broken, so they're forcing 47-day expiration instead.

Stripe bought their domain in 2010. The previous owner's SSL certificate was valid until 2011.

For an entire year, someone else had a perfectly legitimate certificate for their payment processing.

This is why we're getting 47-day certificates.

BygoneSSL and the certificate that wouldn't die
When domains change hands, old certificates don't. Two researchers at DEFCON found 1.5 million domains with valid certs owned by someone else. This is the security research that killed long certificat...

I had a fantastic time chatting with @richcampbell.bsky.social about Certificate management (specifically how much it sucks) and how we're trying to make it better at @certkit.io.

Do you have strong feels about certificates? I'd love to chat with you about it.

Apple wants #SSL certificates to last only 47 days.

Remember when they lasted 3 years? Then 2? Then 1? Now we're speed-running toward daily renewals.

Your bash script from 2019 isn't ready for this
