BUILT FOR DAY-TO-DAY OPERATIONS
Stay informed across the certificate lifecycle.
01
Plan the renewal.
Receive advance expiry notifications, giving the responsible team time to renew and verify the replacement certificate.
02
Look beyond the date.
Review certificate validity, issuer details, and configuration. An unexpired certificate can still be incorrectly installed or mismatched.
03
Protect the connection.
Bring certificate issues into your normal alerting workflow so they reach the people who manage the affected website or service.
Review certificates before they expire.

WHERE IT HELPS
Turn certificate checks
into a repeatable routine.
Keep oversight of the certificates your services depend on, including those renewed automatically. Monitoring provides a separate view of the certificate actually presented by the endpoint.
Pair certificate checks with website uptime monitoring and domain expiration monitoring to track availability and renewal dates together.
Business websites
Track certificates on websites where browser warnings can interrupt customer access.
Renewal follow-up
Check the endpoint after a renewal or certificate replacement.
Certificate portfolios
Organize monitoring across the domains and services your team maintains.
FROM CONFIGURATION TO CONTEXT
Make the first check count.
01 / SETUP
Add the endpoint

02 / SETUP
Set the recipients
Route expiry and validity notifications to the team responsible for certificates.

KEEP THE RIGHT PEOPLE INFORMED
Bring alerts into your team’s workflow.
Choose email or supported integrations such as Slack, Microsoft Teams, and webhooks. Use maintenance windows for planned work and acknowledgements or comments to add incident context.
Notification channels and workflow features depend on your plan.
A FEW USEFUL ANSWERS
Know what your
check tells you.
When are expiry notifications sent?
MonitorCTL’s current SSL service describes reminders at 30, 14, 7, and 1 day before expiry. Confirm the options available in your monitor configuration.
Does MonitorCTL renew my certificates?
Monitoring provides visibility and notifications. Certificate issuance, renewal, and installation remain part of your certificate-management process.
Can monitoring help with certificate errors?
The service checks certificate validity and configuration, including issues such as invalid chains and certificate mismatches. Review the reported details when investigating an alert.
Is SSL monitoring a complete security assessment?
No. Certificate monitoring addresses certificate and HTTPS-related checks. It should be used alongside your wider security and vulnerability-management practices.
