Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I need to check SSL certificates?

SSL certificate expiration is one of the most common causes of website downtime. Regularly checking your certificates helps prevent unexpected expiration that can break HTTPS access for your users.

How do I check an SSL certificate?

You can use OpenSSL commands (openssl s_client -connect example.com:443) to retrieve and inspect SSL certificates. This tool generates the exact commands you need and explains the output.

What certificate information is important?

Key details include: expiration date (never let it expire!), issuer/CA, subject name, subject alternative names (SANs), signature algorithm, key size, and certificate chain validity.

How often should I check certificates?

Check monthly as a best practice. Set up monitoring to alert you 30, 14, and 7 days before expiration. Most modern CAs send expiration reminders, but it's good to have your own verification.
