Overview

Secure sockets layer (SSL) certificates are mission-critical, yet research shows that 40% of enterprises risk unexpected service outages due to expired SSLs. This alarming trend stems from past reliance on the deprecated method of WHOIS-based domain control validation (DCV). CSC’s Senior Director of Technology, Mark Flegg, will guide you through the critical considerations and proven strategies for improving certificate management.

In this session, you’ll learn:

  • Why many organizations are facing business and operations risks tied to flawed certificate practices

  • Best practices for SSL automation and life cycle management – including what to auto-renew, what to keep manual, and how to avoid workflow bottlenecks

  • The essential capabilities of modern certificate management portals, from visibility to control

  • The importance of using modern root-based trust architecture vs. certificate pinning

  • How CSC helps enterprise teams stay resilient
