Automated certificate lifecycle management (CLM) simplifies the complex process of managing SSL/TLS certificates, enhancing efficiency and security for businesses. As digital certificates become harder to deploy and renew manually, Sectigo's CLM maturity model provides a framework to guide organizations at different stages of automation. It helps businesses efficiently manage their certificate needs, ensuring smoother operations and stronger security. Automation is key, but the right strategy depends on the specific needs of each business.

Microsoft is updating SymCrypt, its core cryptographic library, with new quantum-secure algorithms. Microsoft’s details are here. From a news article:

The first new algorithm Microsoft added to SymCrypt is called ML-KEM. Previously known as CRYSTALS-Kyber, ML-KEM is one of three post-quantum standards formalized last month by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The KEM in the new name is short for key encapsulation. KEMs can be used by two parties to negotiate a shared secret over a public channel. Shared secrets generated by a KEM can then be used with symmetric-key cryptographic operations, which aren’t vulnerable to Shor’s algorithm when the keys are of a sufficient size...
