A new certificate issuer will be used in the European data center for Luna Cloud HSM clients starting in August 2022.

A knowledge base article with a full description of the change is available here. The article contains important information on mandatory changes for users on 10.0 or 10.1 client versions.

This change introduces a new endpoint for validating the certificate status. Please ensure that operating systems hosting the client are able to validate the server certificate status (OCSP/CRL) using port 80. 

Ensure that these certificate revocation lists (CRLs) are accessible from the client machine prior to the planned change in August 2022 to guarantee continuity of service.
