Let’s Encrypt is a service provided by the Internet Security Research Group (ISRG).The key principles behind Let’s Encrypt are:Free: Anyone who owns a domain name can use Let’s Encrypt to obtain a trusted certificate at zero cost.Automatic: Software running on a web server can interact with Let’s Encrypt to painlessly obtain a certificate, securely configure it for use, and automatically take care of renewal.Secure: Let’s Encrypt will serve as a platform for advancing TLS security best practices, both on the CA side and by helping site operators properly secure their servers.Transparent: All certificates issued or revoked will be publicly recorded and available for anyone to inspect.Open: The automatic issuance and renewal protocol will be published as an open standard that others can adopt.Cooperative: Much like the underlying Internet protocols themselves, Let’s Encrypt is a joint effort to benefit the community, beyond the control of any one organization.
