We’re pleased to announce that we’ve received cross-signatures from IdenTrust, which means that our certificates are now trusted by all major browsers. This is a significant milestone since it means that visitors to websites using Let’s Encrypt certificates can enjoy a secure browsing experience with no special configuration required.
We’re happy to announce that Let’s Encrypt has entered Public Beta. Invitations are no longer needed in order to get free certificates from Let’s Encrypt.
Since our beta began in September 2015 we’ve issued more than 1.7 million certificates for more than 3.8 million websites.
HPKP pinning carries an inherent risk of bricking your site and requires great care. For that reason, it is not presently supported by the Let’s Encrypt client, and will not be until we have a lot of time to perform quality control on an implementation, if ever.
