SSL certificate monitoring
An expired SSL certificate turns your website into a browser security warning. Utilio monitors SSL expiration dates for every domain you manage and sends alerts before the certificate runs out.
Why SSL expiration is a real problem
An expired SSL certificate doesn't just show a warning — it actively blocks many visitors who won't click past the security screen. Organic traffic drops, conversions stop, and customers may lose trust in the site entirely. Modern browsers are increasingly aggressive about flagging expired certificates, making SSL monitoring more important than ever.
How Utilio monitors SSL certificates
When you add a domain to Utilio and verify ownership, automatic SSL checks begin immediately. Utilio connects to your domain over HTTPS, retrieves the certificate, and records the expiration date. This information is updated on every monitoring cycle so you always see the current state.
Get advance warnings before expiry
Utilio shows you the exact expiration date and how many days remain. When a certificate is within 30 days of expiring, Utilio raises a warning. Within 7 days, it escalates to a critical alert. Email notifications are sent automatically — you don't need to check the dashboard manually.
What Utilio tells you about each SSL certificate
- Certificate expiration date
- Exact days remaining until expiry
- Warning badge when under 30 days remaining
- Critical alert when under 7 days remaining
- Historical tracking across every monitoring run
Part of a complete website health check
SSL monitoring is part of Utilio's full domain health check — the same check run that verifies uptime, DNS records, and domain registration expiry. You get one clear view of everything instead of separate tools for each concern.
