Free HTTPS certificates for websites!!! Let's Encrypt!
The days of paying a company to validate your SSL encryption standards are soon gone once a new service called "Let's Encrypt" hits the Web next year in 2015! Or, in English, web domains don't have to pay to get a green padlock in the URL bar next to their name anymore.
The Electronic Frontier Foundation, a non-profit digital rights group based in the United States, recently announced plans to launch a new certificate authority in 2015. While normally, a new cert authority wouldn't be news, Mozilla, Cisco, Akamai, IdenTrust, and researchers at the University of Michigan have worked together with EFF to provide the new service FREE!
