This research paper investigates comparative security implications, operational costs, and performance metrics of self-signed certificates versus Verisign-issued certificates within enterprise environments through April 2024. Key findings reveal that 45% of enterprises experienced certificate-related outages annually, with 38% attributable to expiration, resulting in average losses between $100,000 and $250,000 per incident.
