The 47-Day Certificate Countdown Starts Now Series

The industry shift to shorter SSL/TLS certificate lifetimes has begun. On March 15, certificate lifetimes move to 200 days - marking the first major step in a multi-year progression toward 47-day certificates. This change represents more than a policy update. It is a structural transformation that will dramatically increase renewal volume, compress operational timelines, and reduce margin for error across enterprise environments. For many organizations, shrinking certificate lifetimes will expose gaps in visibility, ownership, and automation - increasing the risk of outages, security vulnerabilities, and operational strain. To help you stay ahead of this shift, Keyfactor is launching a three-part educational webinar series designed to provide clarity, practical guidance, and a roadmap for long-term readiness. Across this series, you will gain: a clear understanding of the March 15 change and its operational impact, insight into how shorter lifetimes increase renewal pressure and risk, a structured way to assess your certificate lifecycle management maturity, practical steps to move from manual processes to scalable automation, a phased strategy to prepare for the transition to 47-day certificates.
