Products that do what TLS Certificate Management and PKI does
Hello! This project is a TLS/X.509 certificate manager and PKI. Designed to provision and install your TLS certificates across public and private endpoints. It's something I created for my home lab, but has quickly expanded as I have been experimenting more and more with AI development tooling. You can see the product overview: https://www.zaita.com It's architecture and usage is nicely documented: https://docs.zaita.com Unfortunately, you do need to sign up to have a play, but there is a demo instance that doesn't require a credit card. Just enter an email (I won't…

We’ve been managing web infrastructure for a long time. For most of that time, certificate management meant buying a cert, copying it to wherever it needed to go, and setting a calendar reminder. That works when certificates last a year. It stops working when lifetimes drop to 47 days. Certbot is the obvious answer but it doesn’t cover everything. It requires ACME on each server, which means each server needs to be internet-reachable or have DNS provider access. That rules out Windows servers, JKS keystores, and appliances that can’t run Certbot or speak ACME at all. CertKit handles ACME…

hey guys, wanted to show one of my side projects i just made public. the idea is basically another osint tool for pentesters and bug bounty hunters. it watches certificate transparency logs and checks newly-seen domains for exposed stuff like .env files, open .git dirs, config files, db dumps and so on, and puts whatever it finds into a searchable db. you just search a domain (or part of one) and see what's exposed. it's read-only and free. one thing i've been thinking about adding is a way to register for certain keywords and get notified when something new shows up for that search. would…

Certificates expire silently. Kubernetes won't warn you, and most teams find out when something breaks. This exporter watches PEM files, kubeconfigs, Kubernetes TLS secrets, and PKCS#12 bundles, and exposes expiration as Prometheus metrics you can alert on. It works standalone too, no Kubernetes required. A Grafana dashboard is included. The new release is a major rewrite, built from experience running this across a large number of production clusters. The main pain point it addresses: at scale, with thousands of certificates, the exporter was putting too much pressure on the Kubernetes API.…

Hi, HN! I recently published SelfCertForge, an open source desktop app for creating and managing self-signed certificates on macOS and Windows: https://github.com/rbonestell/SelfCertForge/ I know, I know... this isn't an earth-shattering invention. This came from a place of years of personal annoyance. I’ve been maintaining scripts that wrapped OpenSSL for local certificate workflows: create a long-lived root cert, add it to the trust store, then generate and sign child certificates for local services. The scripts work but the workflow was clunky. Used infrequently…

Hello HNers. I'm launching my new service, Certician, and I'd love some feedback from HN users. A while back, I asked if anyone knew of any good, simple tools or services for monitoring SSL certificates [1]. I didn't find any compelling services, so I decided to build one. I tried to keep it simple, since it's self-run and bootstrapped. I know my landing page needs help. It's a lot harder to distill down a service (even a simple one) into compelling, actionable copy than I thought! I have to work at my real job today, so I'll only be able to reply when I have time to take a break for a…

I have written a passwords/secrets manager for my personal needs. Maybe it solves some of your problems too. It is written in Go and is a self-contained executable for a small web-app: https://github.com/jarmo/secrets-web There is also a CLI version if that is your taste: https://github.com/jarmo/secrets-cli To read about more technical details, look into the core repository at https://github.com/jarmo/secrets Any questions/comments/suggestions are welcome in here or via GitHub pull requests.
