LE Wildcards should be around by then! Hopefully enough tooling will exist to make that migration seamless, or as seamless as cert migration can be.

- tomschlick 9y agoLE wildcards are coming early 2018 I believe so you'll still have a month or two gap.
- Guvante 9y agoNo action will be taken to impact users until March 15, 2018 at the earliest and only if you got your certificate before June 1, 2016. At least when it comes to any existing certificate (they are ambiguous about when they will cut off new certificates exactly).
- Ajedi32 9y ago> they are ambiguous about when they will cut off new certificates exactly They are? It seems pretty clear to me. Symantec's old infrastructure will be distrusted in Chrome beta in September 2018. At that point, no certificates issued by Symantec's old root certs (including those issued after June 1, 2016) will be trusted.
- Guvante 9y agoThey mentioned to not get any certificates from the old infrastructure after the new infrastructure is available as they will be untrusted earlier (to ensure that Symantec starts using the new infrastructure exclusively once it is available). However they didn't say when they would do that.
- gerdesj 9y agoYou'll be looking forwards to discovering how to do DNS dynamic updates. LE wildcard certs will only be DNS validated and not using a web server (for obvious reasons, when you think about it)
