How to spot a needle in a haystack

How to spot a needle in a haystack

How do you spot a single SSL certificate that’s been renewed but never installed among 500+ active certificates?

Pretty impossible, right? Unless you’re using the right tools.

Take Twitter for example. It took seconds for SSLBoard to spot a renewed certificate for their production payment API (sounds pretty important, doesn’t it?) that hasn’t been installed.

The kicker? Their old certificate will expire in just 7 days.
They renewed it on time, but somewhere along the way… it wasn’t deployed.

Did I mention that the name of the certificate is api.payment-prod.x.com?
Yes, there’s payment and prod in the name…

This is exactly what SSLBoard is built for: cutting through the clutter, identifying issues before they become problems, and giving you peace of mind when it comes to your SSL certificates.

Stay proactive, not reactive.

👉 Are you ready to make sure your SSL certificates are working as hard as you are? Let’s talk.

Also if you know someone at Twitter, tell them to check out SSLBoard ;-)
