Setting an expiration date for your certificates has several benefits:
Reasonable control of certificate validity: Setting an expiration date helps the issuing authority control the certificate's validity for a specific period, ensuring that the certificate remains valid only for the designated time, avoiding outdated or invalid information.
Ensuring certificate's value: By setting an expiration date, we help ensure that the certificate holds value for a limited period. This encourages certificate holders to use their certificates promptly, increasing the practicality and value of the certificate.
Improved security: Setting an expiration date enhances certificate security. Once a certificate reaches its expiration date, anyone viewing or verifying the certificate will see a message indicating its expiration, preventing the misuse or theft of illegal or invalid certificates.
Regular certificate updates: By setting an expiration date, the issuing authority can prompt certificate holders to update their certificates regularly, ensuring timely and accurate certificate information.
