    Tech LetsEncrypt revokes 3 Million Certs

    Not sure if anyone heard about this, but LetsEncrypt recently revoked 3,048,289 valid certificates.

    We had just 20 affected out of 10k domains using letsencrypt.

    If you are using letsencrypt this article is worth a read and offers the fix action for admins.

      He is with M3, a host - They are not his domains (I assume)...

          This could cause downtime for anyone that has a domain affected and it is not renewed.

                It was an error that meant that they may not have verified the correct owner of the domain...
