Google Chrome and Mozilla to distrust new issuance of Entrust certificates.
Public TLS/SSL certificates issued from Entrust roots will not be trusted by Google Chrome if the Signed Certificate Timestamp (SCT) is dated after November 11, 2024, and by Mozilla if the SCT is dated after November 30, 2024.
- To be trusted by a browser, a publicÌýcertificate authority must comply with specific requirements defined by the CA/Browser Forum.
- To ensure trust is consistent and continuous, browser root programs receive regular audit reports about Certificate Authority (CA) operations and compliance.
- Transparency and accountability are critical to trust. CAs are expected to work in good faith with the browser root programs to fix and prevent issues. 
- Recently, browser root programs indicated a lack of confidence in the TLS certificate issuance practices of Entrust.
- Google ultimately decided to Ìýa move that was subsequently mirrored by Mozilla Firefox.
What does this mean for Entrust customers?
- Google Chrome will not trust Public TLS certificates with an SCT issued by Entrust roots after November 11, 2024.
- Mozilla Firefox will not trust Public TLS certificates issued by Entrust roots with an earliest SCT after November 30, 2024.
- Servers using these affected issuances of Entrust certificates will display as an unsecured site by Google and Mozilla.
- Any TLS certificate with an SCT dated on or before these distinct Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox distrust dates are unaffected by the distrust.

How we earn your trust
Compliance for all
We’re empowering compliance through innovation and open-source solutions
¶ºÒõ¹Ý employs a proactive and data-driven approach to compliance—and we even offer our technology freely to help other organizations do the same, including our recent open-source release of PKIlint, an automated certificate linter that enables users to rapidly check certificates for errors and compliance issues.
Global standards and governance

Our goal is to ensure that all stakeholders are fully informed and confident in our actions to uphold our commitment to their security and the standards by which we are governed.

Why did Google decide to distrust Entrust roots?Ìý
In , Google said:
Over the past several years, highlighted a pattern of concerning behaviors by Entrust that fall short of the above expectations, and has eroded confidence in their competence, reliability, and integrity as a publicly-trusted CA Owner.
And...
Certification Authorities (CAs) serve a privileged and trusted role on the Internet that underpin encrypted connections between browsers and websites. With this tremendous responsibility comes an expectation of adhering to reasonable and consensus-driven security and compliance expectations, including those defined by the CA/Browser TLS Baseline Requirements.
Over the past six years, we have observed a pattern of compliance failures, unmet improvement commitments, and the absence of tangible, measurable progress in response to publicly disclosed incident reports. When these factors are considered in aggregate and considered against the inherent risk each publicly-trusted CA poses to the Internet ecosystem, it is our opinion that Chrome’s continued trust in Entrust is no longer justified.
When will my Entrust certificates be distrusted?
Starting with the November 11 stable release of Google Chrome, which all Chrome users will eventually install, public TLS certificates issued from Entrust roots with a Signed Certificate Timestamp (SCT) dated after November 11, 2024, will not be trusted by Chrome.Ìý
they would distrust Entrust roots as of December 1. Any Entrust TLS certificate with an SCT dated on or before November 30, 2024, will be valid for its term. But if you modify, rekey, or renew such a certificate on or after December 1, it will be distrusted.
Any Entrust TLS certificate with an SCT dated on or before November 11, 2024 (for Google Chrome) and November 30, 2024 (for Mozilla Firefox) will be valid for its term. But if you modify, rekey, or renew such a certificate, it will be distrusted.Ìý
When should I start replacing my current Entrust certificates?
We recommend customers start planning their replacement strategy as soon as possible, with an accurate inventory of their certificates. You may already be experiencing outages because of their distrust. This effort involves learning when each certificate will expire, assessing the risk profile of the associated service, and planning the replacement process.  Contact us today  to start your migration plan.Ìý
How can I determine if we are using Entrust certificates in our environment?
A variety of tools can connect to your infrastructure to scan and discover certificates in your environment. If you are an Entrust customer, look in your Entrust console for tools to help.Ìý
¶ºÒõ¹Ý customers can use ¶ºÒõ¹Ý® Trust Lifecycle Manager (TLM) and ¶ºÒõ¹Ý CertCentral® to evaluate their environment and identify any Entrust certificates in need of replacement. Contact us if you need help with scanning and discovery.Ìý
