This Censys Research Team report explains Google’s removal of trust for certificates from several Entrust roots after Entrust repeatedly mis‑issued certificates and demonstrated inadequate incident response; it describes the mis‑issuance timeline, community and vendor reactions, the role of Signed Certificate Timestamps (SCTs), and quantifies the potential impact (hundreds of thousands of hosts and many financial, government, and enterprise domains) with guidance for affected parties to reissue certificates from other trusted CAs.
