Certimate - Automated SSL Certificate Management Tool
Certimate is an open-source solution designed to simplify SSL/TLS certificate management. It automates the process of applying for, deploying, and automatically renewing certificates from CAs like Let's Encrypt, ensuring your websites and services remain secure and accessible.
Project Introduction
Summary
This project provides a robust and easy-to-use tool for managing SSL certificates throughout their lifecycle, from initial acquisition to timely renewal, reducing manual effort and preventing certificate expiration issues.
