Today we’d like to explain what it costs to run Let’s Encrypt. We’re doing this because we strive to be a transparent organization, we want people to have some context for their contributions to the project, and because it’s interesting. Let’s Encrypt will require about $2.9M USD to operate in 2017. We believe this is an incredible value for a secure and reliable service that is capable of issuing certificates globally, to every server on the Web free of charge.
Let’s Encrypt 2016 In Review
Our first full year as a live CA was an exciting one. I’m incredibly proud of what our team and community accomplished during 2016. I’d like to share some thoughts about how we’ve changed, what we’ve accomplished, and what we’ve learned. At the start of 2016, Let’s Encrypt certificates had been available to the public for less than a month and we were supporting approximately 240,000 active (unexpired) certificates. That seemed like a lot at the time! Now we’re frequently issuing that many new certificates in a single day while supporting more than 20,000,000 active certificates in total. We’ve issued more than a million certificates in a single day a few times recently. We’re currently serving an average of 6,700 OCSP responses per second. We’ve done a lot of optimization work, we’ve had to add some hardware, and there have been some long nights for our staff, but we’ve been able to keep up and we’re ready for another year of strong growth.
New Name, New Home for the Let's Encrypt Client Software
Update: Added clarification that only the Let’s Encrypt client software is changing its name and host. The Let’s Encrypt certificate authority and associated services are not changing names or relocating. Over the next few months the Let’s Encrypt client software will transition to a new name, soon to be announced, and a new home at the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF). This change does not affect the Let’s Encrypt certificate authority (CA) or associated services, which will retain the Let’s Encrypt name and continue to be hosted by the Internet Security Research Group.
