Changes in the world of SSL certificates
In 2020, Apple and Google announced that their browsers only trust SSL certificates that are valid for up to one year. Following this announcement, certificate manufacturers began to issue only one-year certificates, which caused additional inconvenience to customers. Fortunately, in addition to the above, certificate manufacturers began to find ways to make customer services safer, more convenient, and less expensive.
The most important innovation for customers that came on the market in 2020 is a convenient subscription-based certificate ordering. Subscription-based ordering means that you can subscribe to a one-year certificate for several years, which is automatically renewed after one year. This has made it possible to reduce the time limit for a single order for up to six years for a number of certificates, which means lower product pricing per year.
The market for certificate manufacturers is very diverse and this year WaveCom has selected new certificates with the best value for money brands (DigiCert, RadpidSSL, GeoTrust, Thawte, Sectigo). The new enhanced brand selection has also been accompanied by a simpler selection process and automated service.
