Certificate Expiry

SSL/TLS certificates have expiration dates and must be renewed before they expire.

Why It Matters

Expired certificates cause browser warnings that scare users away and break automated systems. They indicate poor security practices.

How We Check

We check your certificate's expiration date and alert when it's approaching expiry (30 days or less).

How to Fix

Set up automatic certificate renewal with Let's Encrypt/Certbot. Monitor certificate expiration dates. Renew at least 30 days before expiry.
