Financial institutions must fix certificate risks. Automation and unified CLM reduce outages, strengthen security, and simplify compliance.

PKI in 2026: automation, PQC action, vendor consolidation, AI-assisted CLM, MSP growth, passkeys, and the rise of AI model signing.

SSL automation is easier than most organizations think, delivering 243% ROI, fewer outages, and readiness for 47-day SSL certificates.

State, local, and education (SLED) institutions face growing certificate complexity and shrinking SSL lifecycles. By 2029, public certificates will last only 47 days making manual management unsustainable. Learn how automation ensures uptime, compliance, and crypto agility for the public sector.

47-day certs, post-quantum cryptography (PQC), and mutual TLS (mTLS) deadlines are colliding. Automation is the one stone that solves them all.

AI models are thinking. It’s time we start signing them to ensure trust, integrity, and security at the edge.

Sectigo has successfully completed the largest migration of public certificate infrastructure in history, transitioning over half a million SSL/TLS, S/MIME, and code signing certificates from Entrust to Sectigo Certificate Manager. This milestone sets a new standard for digital trust transitions, giving customers a secure, automated, and future-ready CLM platform.

SSL/TLS certificate lifespans are shrinking to just 47 days, making manual management impossible. Without true automation, outages, compliance failures, and financial losses are inevitable. This blog explains why automation is no longer optional, it’s a business survival strategy.

As SSL/TLS lifespans shrink to 47 days, outdated automation strategies put certificates and businesses at risk. From relying on centralized vaults to overusing wildcard certificates, PKI teams often confuse request portals with true lifecycle automation. These seven common missteps reveal why many organizations still face outages, compliance failures, and security gaps. The solution? End-to-end automation that covers discovery, issuance, deployment, and renewal reducing risk while scaling crypto agility.

SSL/TLS certificates are no longer just a technical detail, they’re now a strategic driver of crypto agility. With certificate lifespans shortening to just 47 days by 2029, organizations must adopt automation, certificate visibility, and lifecycle management to stay secure. This shift, alongside the coming impact of quantum computing, forces leadership to treat certificate agility as a core business priority for resilience, compliance, and post-quantum readiness.
