Dear Customers,
This announcement is to inform you about an upcoming change at Sectigo Certificate Authority. Starting from the timeframe below, Sectigo will transition Multi-Perspective Issuance Corroboration (MPIC) into permanent enforcement mode.
The timeframe is as follows:
10:00 AM UTC September 13, 2025
06:00 AM EDT September 13, 2025
From this point forward, if MPIC checks do not corroborate primary DCV or CAA results, certificate issuance will not proceed.
This change will not affect existing or already issued SSL certificates. Most customers will not need to take any action; however, if you are using custom validations or geographically restricted validation paths, we recommend reviewing your setup.
The maintenance will not affect existing, new or issued SSLs in any way.
We thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter.
Kind regards,
Namecheap Support Team
