About this talk
This talk will cover the rapidly shrinking validity period for end entity public certificates. With the CA/B forum about to cut the certificate lifecycle in half this March, it is now time for organizations to truly understand what impact this has based on their staff levels and how many certificates they manage. This session will make the CA/B clock rulings clear and provide real actionable recommendations that conference participants can take back to their company for success!
