Certificates gone bad | The Backend Engineering Show

Certificates contain useful metadata including the public key, domain name, signature, etc. However, the private key can be leaked which causes the certificate to be invalid/dangerous to keep around. In that particular situation, we need a mechanism to revoke certificates and that is what I’m going to discuss in this show. 0:00 Intro 0:30 Why Certificates 12:00 Certificates can go bad 14:50 Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs) 18:30 OCSP (Online Certificate Status Protocol) 20:40 OCSP Stapling 24:30 Best certificates are short 26:30 Summary Become a Member on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_ML5xP23TOWKUcc-oAE_Eg/join 🔥 Members Only Content https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=UUMO_ML5xP23TOWKUcc-oAE_Eg Support my work on PayPal https://bit.ly/33ENps4
