Handling SSL Certificate Challenges &Solutions Properly For Improved NetworkSecurity

Abstract

Cyberattack cases rise along with the growth of the internet across the globe. Therefore, the corresponding need for a cybersecurity protocol becomes the most needful as well. SSL is usually a known as an encryption protocol that was designed to provide security as well as authentication when there is an interaction between two or more people across the network setting. However, there are several SSL-related challenges, as well, such as certificate expiration, mismatching serial number, and length and size of the certificate. This paper will discuss automated reminders as a key solution that network providers and users can implement to ensure the certificate remains up to date, is fully supported, and compatible with the network’s requirements.
