Checklist: 5 Ways to Keep Your SSL Certificates Under Control
SSL certificates are the backbone of digital trust, securing data and proving your identity to users. Yet for many municipalities, provinces and organizations managing them feels like juggling flaming torches—one slip and there’s chaos.
Don’t let expired SSL certificates compromise your security or your reputation. Here’s a practical checklist to help keep your certificates under control:
1. Centralized Inventory
Track every certificate across your servers, devices and cloud environments. Visibility is your first defense against unexpected expirations.
2. Expiry Alerts
Never rely on memory. Automated reminders—well ahead of expiration—give you time to renew without panic.
3. Standardized Certificate Policies
Define clear policies on key lengths, vendors and validity periods. Consistency prevents gaps and simplifies audits.
4. Automate Where Possible
Manual processes are prone to human error. Automation ensures timely renewals and smooth installations, keeps services online without interruption.
5. Review Regularly
Set periodic check-ins to review your inventory, revoke unused certificates and adapt to new security standards.
