This year in October, our managed hosting platform freistilbox had its fifth birthday. I founded freistil IT in 2010, so five years is a major part of our whole journey. Unfortunately, in all honesty (and I’m going to be candid throughout this article), we did not come nearly as far as we should have at this time. We could have a better product, and we could have grown faster, both financially and in team size.

After a number of scandals related to dodgy SSL certificates, Google decided in March 2017 to take measures against Symantec and its brands Thawte, GeoTrust and RapidSSL. Google’s initial proposal included many limitations, for example removing ‘trust’ in existing Symantec certificates from the Chrome browser, showing Symantec EV certificates as domain validation certificates without a company name and green address bar, and limiting certificate validity to 9 months. After long discussions on the Chrome mailing list, a new proposal defined revised, less disruptive measures. Still, Google states that starting 31 August 2017, Chrome may gradually begin mistrusting Symantec, GeoTrust, Thawte and RapidSSL branded certificates that were issued before 1 June 2016.
