Preparing for the Quantum Future: A Practical Guide to the NCSC Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Roadmap

The threat posed by future quantum computers is no longer theoretical. When these machines arrive (or sooner) today’s encryption systems will be at risk, as quantum algorithms such as Shor’s could break widely used public-key schemes. Experts speak of a looming “Q-Day”, and the UK’s National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) has set out a clear, phased PQC roadmap we should all act on now....

Why TLS Certificate Lifecycle Reduction Improves Security

The push for certificate lifecycle reduction stems from a fundamental truth: certificate lifecycle management is not a team member’s core job role – it's often an afterthought and annoyance, a general admin task. With these changes, this will fundamentally not be the case.

The recent CA/Browser Forum meeting revealed significant changes to Apple's certificate lifecycles, and they seem to be following Google’s lead. With a proposal to reduce TLS validity periods to just 45 days by 2027, this adjustment to Apple's certificate lifecycles has sparked even more anxious discussion among IT professionals – yes, it’s frustrating, but it’s also important.

Wildcard Certificates: The Pros and Cons

Certificate management is a critical part of an organisation’s cyber security that cannot be ignored. Certificates are vital for protecting data transmitted between websites and users. If not properly managed, data could be at significant risk. One certificate option that organisations often consider is wildcard certificates, which provide some benefits but also carry security risks.

Google’s 90-Day TLS Certificate Limit: What Does It Mean?

Google's announcement to reduce the lifespan of Transport Layer Security (TLS) certificates from 398 days to 90 days continues to be a hot topic of discussion among information security professionals, especially those directly involved in replacing and updating certificates. It’s especially frustrating because – although mooted back in April of 2023 – there’s still no confirmed date for its implementation. Yet Chrome browsers account for just over 50% of all UK web traffic (Statista), so there’s no avoiding the impact that this will have.
