This summit is designed for security and IT leaders, including CISOs, PKI administrators, enterprise architects, DevSecOps teams, and IT operations professionals responsible for managing digital trust, uptime, and compliance in their organizations.
The passage of the CA/Browser Forum ballot to reduce the maximum certificate lifespan to 47 days represents a natural and anticipated progression in the industry’s ongoing effort to enhance security and streamline certificate management. This move, while significant, is neither surprising nor disruptive to those who have been following the industry’s trajectory over the past decade. Rather, it is a continuation of a well-documented trend toward shorter certificate lifetimes - a trend that has consistently aligned with the need for improved security, crypto-agility, and automation.
The first stepdown will be in March of 2026, shortening certificate lifespans to 200 days. The dates are as follows:
- March 15, 2026: Maximum certificate lifespan reduced to 200 days
- March 15, 2027: Further reduction to 100 days
- March 15, 2029: Final enforcement of the 47-day maximum lifespan
This is a two-part interactive experience that combines high-level thought leadership with a practical, hands-on workshop. You’ll walk away not just informed—but equipped with a personalized 47-Day Response Plan you can act on immediately.
You’ll gain insight into the operational and security risks caused by certificate lifecycle gaps, hear from industry experts and peers, and receive a step-by-step plan to proactively manage your certificate inventory and expiration timelines.
