What happened
This collection of Google Security Blog posts outlines a set of forward-looking platform and ecosystem security initiatives across Chrome and Android. Chrome is collaborating in the IETF PLANTS working group to adopt Merkle Tree Certificates (MTCs) and other approaches to make HTTPS scalable and quantum-resistant, while delaying addition of pure post-quantum X.509 roots to the Chrome Root Store. The Chrome Root Program and CAB Forum are phasing out 11 legacy Domain Control Validation methods (SC‑080/SC‑090/SC‑091) to improve certificate issuance security by March 2028.
