Until 200 days SSL/TLS validity

Before, we struggled to scale identity securely. With GlobalSign, we enrolled 1.2M devices in under a month — and passed our audit.

Rising Pressure, Shrinking Lifespans

IT managers are on a journey towards a seismic shift in digital trust: SSL / TLS certificate lifespans are dropping to just 47 days.
First stop is March 15, 2026, when validity will be reduced to 200 days. In just a few years, what used to be a once-a-year task will become a near-monthly requirement, so you need to act now.

Why the Gear Shift?

In April 2025, the Certificate Authority/Browser Forum agreed to shorten certificate lifespans to enhance security. The reasoning is simple: shorter validity periods reduce the risk of compromise. With more frequent renewals, it becomes harder for bad actors to exploit stolen or outdated certificates, and easier for organizations to maintain strong cryptographic hygiene. Read more about it
