What happened
A collection of Google Security Blog posts announcing multiple forward-looking security initiatives and ecosystem changes: Chrome is pursuing quantum-safe HTTPS via Merkle Tree Certificates (MTCs) in the IETF PLANTS workstream rather than immediately adding post‑quantum X.509 roots, and highlights Certificate Transparency and performance tradeoffs. The Chrome Root Program and CA/Browser Forum ballots (SC‑080, SC‑090, SC‑091) will phase out 11 legacy Domain Control Validation methods (phone/mail/email/reverse-lookup) with full effect by March 2028.
