We Issued Our First Six Day Cert

Earlier this year we announced our intention to introduce short-lived certificates with lifetimes of six days as an option for our subscribers. Yesterday we issued our first short-lived certificate. You can see the certificate at the bottom of our post, or here thanks to Certificate Transparency logs. We issued it to ourselves and then immediately revoked it so we can observe the certificate’s whole lifecycle. This is the first step towards making short-lived certificates available to all subscribers.
