Today's Global Azure Outage Was Due To...

...an expired SSL cert.
Amazing. Azure has been all but unusable since 1pm Pacific or so, 8+ hours at this point...I know because I've been trying to do work in it since then.
Maybe Microsoft should use Outlook to setup a recurring annual reminder!?
BTW, isn't Microsoft an intermediate CA?

This doesn't really surprise me... SSL certs are really easy to forget about since it's something that you generally only handle once a year (or even less often than that). I see lots of hosts with expired certificates on their SolusVM, their billing panels, etc.
