A certificate should never surprise you.

An expired certificate can turn a healthy website, API or customer portal into a browser warning in an instant.

SSLassist gives you a simple inventory of the public TLS endpoints you care about. Each check records what the server presents, how long the certificate has left and whether its identity and trust path still look right.

When something important changes, the account holder receives a practical alert with the current status and a direct path back to the monitor.

More than an expiry reminder

Watch the certificate your visitors actually receive.

SSLassist checks the public endpoint, so configuration problems on the live server can be seen alongside the certificate dates.

Renewal countdown

See the expiry date and days remaining, with escalating renewal alerts as the deadline approaches.

Trust and chain checks

Identify untrusted certificates and servers that may be missing the intermediate certificate clients require.

Hostname validation

Confirm that the certificate presented by the server covers the hostname your customers use.

Certificate change detection

Receive an alert when the endpoint starts presenting a different certificate so unexpected replacements stand out.

Custom TLS ports

Monitor public websites and other directly accessible TLS services using an optional port from 1 to 65535.

Check history

Review recent results, response times, certificate identity and status changes from your account dashboard.

Set up in three steps

Prove it. Add it. Let SSLassist watch it.

1

Create or sign in

Open your free SSLassist account and choose SSL Monitoring from the dashboard.

2

Verify your domain

Publish the unique TXT record shown by SSLassist to confirm that you control the domain.

3

Add endpoints

Add the verified domain or its subdomains, choose an optional port and complete the first check.

Monitoring is for SSL/TLS services that resolve to and are directly reachable on the public internet. Internal, VPN-only and private-address services are not supported.

Good to know

Built to be useful without becoming another burden.

Yes. A verified domain covers itself and its subdomains. You can also provide the public TLS port when it is not the usual port 443.
