Alert your team by Telegram and text before certificates expire

Checks your certificates and revocation lists on a schedule and texts or messages your team before any expire.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Exactly one path is taken; runs once per each certificate and revocation list.

The problem it solves

Your team finds out about an expired security certificate the hard way, when a website or service suddenly breaks. Manually tracking expiration dates across every certificate and revocation list is tedious and easy to forget, especially with multiple systems to watch.

Who it fits

IT and security teams responsible for keeping certificates and revocation lists current.

How it works

  1. Runs automatically every 12 hours
  2. Checks certificate and revocation list expiration dates
  3. Flags anything expiring soon
  4. Sends an alert by Telegram and text message
What you get

Certificates that never expire without warning

You get a Telegram and text alert well before any certificate or revocation list is set to expire.

What you get

An early warning alert sent to your team before a certificate or revocation list expires.

What you need

A Telegram bot and a text messaging API account for sending alerts.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
