> Combined with the gradual move to certificates with shorter lifespans anyway (as a way of coping with problems like this, and with the difficulty of certificate revocation generally), automation is a necessity going forward.

Interesting. What are the effects of automation? E.g. is it possible to automate the update of EV certs? Is this opinion fueled by the idea that websites should be hosted in the public cloud? What is OWASP's stance?

Where can I find more on pro & con automated cert renewal? Around the time when Letsencrypt was introduced, there must have been someone who wrote an informed article/blog on automated cert renewal.
