Summary
On 07 October 2026, Contributions Real-Time Cloud is updating its SSL root certificate from Comodo to Sectigo.
Description
What is the change?
To ensure continued connectivity, customers who manually manage Trusted Root stores or lack internet access must install Sectigo by 07 October 2026. They should also keep their existing Comodo certificate until advised otherwise.
This update is part of a scheduled security enhancement to align with current industry standards and ensure continued trust and compatibility across platforms. Sectigo is the successor to Comodo and offers improved certificate lifecycle management and support.
What action do you need to take?
Customers whose systems automatically trust public certificate authorities do not need to take any action.
Customers whose systems don't automatically update root certificates or who lack internet access must manually install the Sectigo Public Server Authentication Root R46 certificate before 07 October 2026.
Customers can begin testing in DEV/UAT from 01 July 2026.
Customers may add the Sectigo certificate at any time but must keep the existing Comodo certificate in place until advised otherwise.
