SSL / TLS from Symantec? change certificates directly

Https from ; Tens of thousands of websites will find themselves marked as insecure if they don't stop the HTTPS certificate they use in the next two months.

Thanks to a decision made in September, Google to stop considering τα SSL/TLS που εκδόθηκαν από την . Symantec

The decision will apply from mid-April, and the του προγράμματος περιήγησης Chrome που επισκέπτονται τέτοιες σελίδες που χρησιμοποιούν πιστοποιητικά ασφαλείας που εκδόθηκαν πριν από την 1η Ιουνίου του 2016 ή μετά την 1η Δεκεμβρίου του 2017, από την Symantec, θα προειδοποιούνται από τον browser, ότι η σύνδεσή τους δεν είναι ιδιωτική και ότι οι πληροφορίες τους μπορούν να υποκλαπούν.

Change will come with her 66 of Chrome, which will be released on April 17. But the it will get even bigger on October 23rd when build 70 is released which will recognize all Symantec certificates as untrusted.

Of course, not everyone is using Chrome and they are not all upgraded directly to the latest version. But as we do, websites using HTTPS from Symantec will have problems.

So if you are a company, or an organization that uses of Symantec you should do something soon, so you do not get exposed.

Symantec, meanwhile, claims that only 127 certificates were issued incorrectly, not the 30.000 originally announced. But a few months after the revelation of the "wrong" certificates and after the insistence of Google, Symantec sold the certificate department to DigiCert.
