Certificate Service Transition
CertiNext will be the new platform provider for the InCommon Certificate service. CertiNext is well known in Interoperable Global Trust Federation (IGTF) and the certificate industry more generally. The service needs to evolve to meet the community’s changing expectations. We’re updating and modernizing it to better serve current needs while also positioning it for the future. All TLS web certificates will need to be migrated off Sectigo Configuration Manager by February 2, 2027.
Detailed Timeline:
The certificate service transition began April 7, 2026, and will conclude with our transition off of Sectigo Certificate Manager on July 17, 2026. CertiNext, the new InCommon Intermediate CA, will be issuing 199 day certificates through December 31st. Sectigo Certificate Manager will continue to be available to issue 199 day certificates through July 17, 2026.
