Last call on 398-day certificates
The bell rings. Last call for 398-day certificates is March 15. After that, every CA is required to cut you off at 200 days. Some have already stopped serving them early. The rest follow in two weeks. The irony of good certificate management is that when it works, nobody notices. No alerts, no outages, no 2am pages. The only time it gets attention is when something expires. Which means the teams doing it well rarely have the budget or the political capital to fix the process before it breaks.
