If you don't know what's Let's Encrypt then click on the padlock in your browser [2022-09-0T22:37:00Z], you’ll see that this site, like our sister blog site Sophos News, uses a web certificate that’s vouched for by Let’s Encrypt, now a well-established Certificate Authority (CA).
Let’s Encrypt, as a CA, signs TLS cryptographic certificates for free on behalf of bloggers, website owners, mail providers, cloud servers, messaging services…
This site, like millions of others, has a certificate from Let’s Encrypt. Farewell, Peter Eckersley, PhD, who helped make it all possible.
