Is Let's encrypt trustworthy?
Let's Encrypt is a new Certificate Authority (CA) that offers FREE SSL certificates that are just as secure as paid certificates.
What's wrong with Letsencrypt?
It doesn't mean you can use it safely. As a further concern, little protection preventing distributors of malware from making use of Let's Encrypt exists. Malware distributors have already taken advantage of this. For example, around 15,000 certificates have been issued to phishing sites containing 'PayPal' as a term.
Should I use Let's encrypt SSL?
Consequently, Let's Encrypt is only a good option if you're running a site that doesn't feature email sign-up forms or store visitors' credit card details. The CA issues DV certificates because it cannot automate insurance for OV and EV SSL/TLS certificates.
How do I get rid of Letsencrypt?
Delete a Let's Encrypt SSL Certificate
Just type the index number of the domain name, that you want to delete and hit enter. The issued certificate including other associated files will be deleted. You can also specify the domain name with the certbot command as below.
