During a security review, an organization notices that their digital certificate is expiring soon. The certificate authority that issued the certificate is recognized as trustworthy. Which approach solves the upcoming problem while limiting disruption to users?
Restrict IP addresses for inbound traffic until the certificate is replaced
Point all traffic to a different domain that has a self-signed certificate
Request a newly issued certificate from the same authority and establish a schedule to renew
Display a temporary message so the user understands there is an expired credential
Replacing the expiring certificate with a newly issued one from a recognized provider maintains user trust by ensuring that encrypted sessions remain valid. Scheduling a renewal process avoids service outages. Redirecting traffic, restricting IP ranges, or posting a custom message do not directly resolve the expiring certificate and may break secure access.
