FOR PKI AND SECURITY CONSULTANTS
The month's PKI compliance changes — written for you to send under your own logo.
Every month, a client-ready brief on what changed in the Web PKI and what to do about it. You replace the logo and your firm name. Everything else is ready to forward.

Your clients pay you to already know this.
Certificate lifetimes are collapsing. Root programs are shedding hierarchies. Three separate deadlines land on September 15 alone. Staying current is not the billable work — it is the unpaid overhead that makes the billable work possible.
Most consultants handle it the same way: skim the CA/Browser Forum list when there is time, find out about the rest from a client asking a question you cannot answer yet.
A monthly brief, already written, already sourced.
The PKI Compliance Brief is a white-label monthly digest for consultants. It arrives as an editable Word document and a PDF. You drop in your logo, replace two placeholders, and send it to your clients as your own work.
It is written by a practising PKI engineer, not a content team — the same person who writes the deadline tracking behind fixmycert.com.
What's in every issue
The 60-second version
The month in four bullets, for the client who reads only the top.
What changed, and what to do about it
Each item with a plain-language explanation, the operational consequence, and a specific action.
Real commands
The openssl one-liners your clients can run against their own estate to find out whether a given change affects them.
Deadlines at a glance
A twelve-month table: the date, what happens, and who it hits.
One thing worth doing this month
The single highest-leverage action, so the brief ends with a recommendation rather than a list.
A primary source on every claim
The standards body, root program or regulator that published it. Never a vendor blog.
This ships under your name. So every line is checked.
That last point is the one that matters, and it is the reason this exists.
A brief that goes out under your logo puts your credibility behind every sentence in it. So each claim in each issue is verified against the primary source — the ballot, the root program policy, the regulator's own publication — before it ships. Where sources disagree, the brief says so.
The August issue is a live example. NIST's own transition page gives two different dates for the FIPS 140-2 move to Historical: September 21 in its narrative text, September 22 in its schedule table. The brief prints both, and tells your client to plan to the earlier one. That is the standard.
