CIO Study: Automation Vital to Address Shorter Lifespans and Growth of TLS/SSL Certificates

May 1, 2025

As your enterprise’s number of TLS certificates continues to climb, the amount of work required to manage them multiplies, too, along with cyber risk levels. Shortening certificate lifespans (as in the case of CA/Browser Forum’s recent decision to reduce maximum TLS certificate validity to just 47 days) compound the issue further, presenting a dire need for automated CLM.

What impact will this growth have on your business? Find out what 1,000 CIOs had to say.

What you’ll learn:

  • How shortening certificate lifespans affect staffing, budgets, and security—and why there’s such a pressing need for automated CLM
  • The average number of machine identities expected across enterprises in 2025 (It’s more than you think!)
  • How many CIOs reported certificate-related outages or security incidents in the last year
  • Why traditional CLM can’t keep up with the velocity of today’s digital transformation, especially in cloud native architectures
