WEBSITE CERTIFICATE REVIEW · Workflow idea

See which website certificates need attention before they expire.

Keep a list of websites that an administrator wants to monitor and review their certificate status on a regular schedule. Bring upcoming expirations and invalid certificates into a clear review list so the responsible person can verify the details and decide what to do next.

  2. Check certificate status and dates

    Gather the reported certificate status and expiry date, keeping the check time visible.

  3. Update the review list

    Record the latest findings alongside each site so administrators can compare changes over time.

  4. Highlight items needing attention

    Bring invalid certificates and dates within the team’s chosen review window to the responsible administrator.

  5. Verify and decide on next steps

    Have an authorized person confirm the finding and approve any renewal, security change, or external communication.

The handoff

A dated list of certificate status and expiry details, with sites needing attention highlighted for an administrator.

Keep in mind

Certificate information can be incomplete or out of date. Verify the domain and expiry details against a trusted source. An authorized administrator remains responsible for renewals, security or access changes, and approval of the exact wording and recipients of any external notice.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Select sites and review frequency

Choose the approved website list and how often an administrator should review certificate status.

Set expiry and exception thresholds

Decide how far ahead to flag an expiry and how invalid, missing, or unclear results are shown.

Choose a restricted review location

Keep the site inventory and findings available only to the administrators who need them.

Assign certificate and communication owners

Name who verifies findings, approves security changes, and reviews any external notice before it is sent.

Put your next idea to work.

Start with your brief. Make the process your own.
