# About

Let's Encrypt is a new free and automated certificate authority, launching in summer 2015. This talk will explain how Let's Encrypt works, and show you how to use it to automate HTTPS on a range of different Web, mail and other server types. It will cover obtaining new certificates, renewing them automatically, and enabling various advanced TLS security features. We also discuss the roadmap to a Web that is HTTPS by default.
