Let's Encrypt, the nonprofit certificate authority that issues free TLS certificates, is adding two additional remote perspectives for domain validation. The change means certificate issuance checks will be performed from more network vantage points, improving resilience against routing hijacks and local network manipulation. The announcement is being discussed on Hacker News and shared among developers on Mastodon.
Why now: The infrastructure change affects how millions of websites' certificates are validated, a topic of broad interest to developers and security engineers.
