Why SSL Monitoring Matters
Frequently Asked Questions
What is SSL monitoring?
SSL monitoring continuously checks the validity, expiry date, and chain integrity of your SSL/TLS certificates. UptimePoint checks your certificates on a daily basis and alerts you well before expiration so you have time to renew.
How far in advance will I be notified?
UptimePoint sends graduated alerts at 30, 14, 7, and 3 days before your SSL certificate expires. This gives you plenty of time to renew, even if your renewal process involves validation steps.
What happens when an SSL certificate expires?
An expired SSL certificate triggers browser warnings that scare away visitors, breaks HTTPS encryption, and can negatively impact your SEO rankings. Google has confirmed that expired certificates can affect search rankings.
Can I monitor wildcard certificates?
Yes, UptimePoint supports monitoring wildcard SSL certificates (e.g., *.example.com) as well as single-domain and multi-domain (SAN) certificates.
