The Future of SSL Certificate Management: Adapting to Shortened Renewal Periods
Security Boulevard, Friday, April 18th, 2025
The industry is evolving yet again. With the CA/Browser Forum's recent decision to reduce the maximum SSL/TLS certificate lifecycle to 47 days by 2029, the way organizations manage their certificates is going to change significantly-and sooner than most realize.
This update builds on the trend of strengthening web security by minimizing risks associated with stale or compromised certificates.
It's no surprise that this shift has sparked questions from our existing customers, such as:
'As we are using Imperva SSL, which has an expiry of 6 months. We did however give the delegation to Imperva for auto-renewal. Will the new changes impact Imperva SSL also? Or will it remain unaffected since we use auto-renewal?'
