US Patent 11784831 Management of digital certificate with repeated rollback

The present disclosure generally relates to systems and methods for the gradual application of a new digital certificate to a service endpoint or server, with repeated rollbacks to an old digital certificate, whereby the new certificate is applied to a service endpoint and automatically rolled back to the previous certificate after an amount of time. After a period that corresponds to a set amount of time minus the time the new certificate was applied to the endpoint, the process starts again, except with an increased period of time for the new certificate.
