Drew Connery-MurrayHOST
Cloudflare says it's applied to root programs with Chrome, Apple, Microsoft, and Mozilla, end quote.
Drew Connery-MurrayHOST
Signed a definitive agreement to acquire an established, broadly trusted root from GlobalSign, end quote.
Drew Connery-MurrayHOST
They also plan to offer post-quantum certificates.
Drew Connery-MurrayHOST
It does sound like Cloudflare intends to provide certificates for free along similar lines to Let's Encrypt, which has been doing it for a while.
Drew Conry-MurrayHOST
This would allow it the digital certificates that underpin web authentication and encryption.
Drew Conry-MurrayHOST
Cloudflare says it's applied to root programs with Chrome, Apple, Microsoft, and Mozilla, and, quote, "Signed a definitive agreement to acquire an established, broadly trusted root from GlobalSign," end quote.
Drew Conry-MurrayHOST
They also plan to offer post-quantum certificates.
Drew Conry-MurrayHOST
Uh, it does sound like Cloudflare intends to provide certificates for free, uh, along similar lines to Let's Encrypt, which has been doing it for a while.

Brian TellerHOST
Second, Cloudflare plans to become a public certificate authority.
Brian TellerHOST
It has applied to the Chrome, Apple, Microsoft, and Mozilla root programs and signed an agreement to acquire an existing trusted root from GlobalSign.
Brian TellerHOST
Cloudflare also says it wants to be one of the early CAs issuing post-quantum certificates.
Brian TellerHOST
Cloudflare has spent years being one of the largest consumers of publicly trusted certificates.
Alastair CookeHOST
Turning away from AI just briefly, Cloudflare is launching a free public certificate authority to issue digital certificates that keep encrypted websites safe and secure.
Alastair CookeHOST
Uh, Cloudflare is a- acquiring established systems from GlobalSign and will support both the old and new devices while particularly providing a reliable backup to services like Let's Encrypt that are oriented towards very fast turnaround for renewing certificates.
Alastair CookeHOST
The company also offers to, uh...
Alastair CookeHOST
The company also plans to offer advanced post-quantum certification by twenty twenty-seven to protect against those quantum threats we know are coming along.
Eddie Montes TravisHOST
We've gathered a massive stack of sources to guide us through this.
Eddie Montes TravisHOST
I am talking about recent cybersecurity threat reports, enterprise architecture guides, and major legal updates from organizations like GlobalSign, Swisign, Utumaco, Security Brief UK, NotaryCam, the National Notary Association, and several others.
Marylyn Lee TrotterHOST
There's a lot of heavy reading.
Eddie Montes TravisHOST
Oh, definitely.
11 MINS LATER
Marylyn Lee TrotterHOST
Precisely.
Marylyn Lee TrotterHOST
It is the bedrock of digital commerce and legal validation.
Marylyn Lee TrotterHOST
But the data from the Swissign and GlobalSign reports highlights a massive structural shift happening right now.
Marylyn Lee TrotterHOST
The lifespan of these certificates is shrinking dramatically.
Steve HallHOST
I mean, it doesn't matter how old you are, if whether you're 10 years old or 90 years old, you, you look at your phone and you see an email.
Steve HallHOST
Who's that from? Is that from GlobalSign, or is that from someone pretending to, trying to pretend to be GlobalSign?
Michelle DavidsonHOST
Mm.
Steve HallHOST
Is it someone trying to steal my money and my credentials? And that's why now, you know, companies, of course, have regulations that they didn't have in place 30 years ago to obviously make sure that they've got the right systems in place and updates to stop that from happening or try to prevent it from happening.
20 MINS LATER
Steve HallHOST
You know, we got used to using open source before, about sharing code, for example, about doing things quicker.
Steve HallHOST
I think as AI is, is harnessed properly, especially with agile cryptography as well, that idea where someone creates a policy or, or process, enough people can copy it rather than always trying to reinvent it and doing the wrong thing, so.
Michelle DavidsonHOST
Yeah, and we talked about, mentioned about being crypto agile, being crypto agile, and we've spoken about it with Arvid, our CISO from GlobalSign-
Steve HallHOST
Yeah
Rich StroffolinoHOST
What's new is that Cloudflare is moving from a Chrome experiment to running its own CA.
Rich StroffolinoHOST
It has agreed to acquire publicly trusted root key material from GlobalSign, a deal expected to close within two months, and has applied to the Chrome, Apple, Microsoft, and Mozilla root programs.
Rich StroffolinoHOST
Classical certificates will start once those are accepted, with production MTC issuance planned for the first quarter of 2027.
Rich StroffolinoHOST
MTCs work by proving a certificate is logged in a trusted registry with a lightweight proof, so connections don't have to carry heavy post-quantum signatures.
