Progress Towards 100% HTTPS, June 2016

Our goal with Let’s Encrypt is to get the Web to 100% HTTPS. We’d like to give a quick progress update. Let’s Encrypt has issued more than 5 million certificates in total since we launched to the general public on December 3, 2015. Approximately 3.8 million of those are active, meaning unexpired and unrevoked. Our active certificates cover more than 7 million unique domains. A couple of different

The ACME Protocol is an IETF Standard

It has long been a dream of ours for there to be a standardized protocol for certificate issuance and management.

Engineering deep dive: Encoding of SCTs in certificates

Let’s Encrypt recently launched SCT embedding in certificates. This feature allows browsers to check that a certificate was submitted to a Certificate Transparency log. As part of the launch, we did a thorough review that the encoding of Signed Certificate Timestamps (SCTs) in our certificates matches the relevant specifications. In this post, I’ll dive into the details. You’ll learn more about X.

Let’s Encrypt 2016 In Review
