SSL Monitoring

An expired SSL certificate turns a working site into a full-screen browser warning within seconds, and it's one of the most preventable outages there is — certificates expire on a known schedule, not randomly.

The failure mode is almost always the same: a certificate auto-renews everywhere except one subdomain, a client changes hosts and drops auto-renewal, or a renewal reminder goes to an inbox nobody checks anymore. Tracking expiry across every hostname (not just the root domain) closes that gap.

Who this is for

  • Agencies managing SSL across many client domains and subdomains
  • Freelancers who don't want a certificate warning to be how a client finds out something's wrong
  • Anyone who has been surprised by a expired-certificate warning before
