Let's Encrypt adds two more remote perspectives for domain validation

Original: Let's Encrypt is adding two additional remote perspectives for domain validation

Let's Encrypt has announced it is adding two additional remote perspectives to its certificate domain validation process, bringing more geographically and network-diverse vantage points into the checks that confirm an applicant controls a domain. The move aims to make issuance more resilient against routing hijacks and localized attacks. System administrators and security engineers are discussing the operational and reliability implications of the change.

Why now: Let's Encrypt underpins a large share of the web's HTTPS certificates, so changes to its validation process draw immediate attention from security and operations communities.
