Read Original

The article details an urgent security advisory for website owners using SSL certificates from StartCom (StartSSL) or WoSign. Major browsers like Chrome 56 and Firefox 51, releasing in early 2017, will distrust these certificates, marking affected sites as insecure. It explains the author's personal experience with the issue and strongly recommends switching to an alternative like Let's Encrypt to maintain site security and accessibility.
