Re: Digital Certificate expire dates?

I like the SQL option but that looks like a 7.5 option. Might be there in
a year but...
We do get emails from vendors and act on those.
This was an internal Cert that was created for ACS to use SSL, in the
*SYSTEM Certificate Store . It was created back in 2017 and expired
yesterday. Did not take long to renew it but figuring it out in the
early AM was a pain.
Being an internal no email notification. We are a very small shop and do
use an IT calendar/email for things like this, but back in 2017 it did not
happen. We talked about putting a reminder on the calendar for 2028/05/27
when it is going to expire next time. The other thing I did was put on my
EOY checklist to look and see if any are going to expire in the next 365
days and renew them.

Short writing our own doesn't sound like an automated solution exists.

Thanks for the help.

If you don't monitor your email, just close the accounts. :) It's
literally part of the job (to monitor email and be aware of expiring
certificates).

Also, the company you get the certs from normally send emails alerting
you
to them expiring at around 30 days.

I searched and did not find a way to give us a warning if a Digital
Certificate is going to expire soon. I saw one discussion but short
of
manually checking it..
I see the Check Expiration option in the GUI interface. Any way to
have
this send us a message saying 'Digital Certificate is going to expire
soon'?

I guess add this to my EOY process. Manual check and if expiring
renew.
