Checking Website Certificate Expiry Dates with CheckCentral

February 4, 2019
We've recently released a Direct Integration built for checking SSL/TLS certificate expiry dates. The script for this guide will still work, but we would highly recommend using the built-in integration for it. You can get started with the Direct Integration by navigating to your CheckCentral dashboard and clicking Services > Direct Integrations in the top menu.
If you have websites for which you maintain the SSL certificates, this PowerShell script will help more efficiently monitor the expiration status of those certificates. The script can be run from anywhere, as it connects to the public URL for the website, and it will email the results wherever you like. This help guide shows how to configure the script to email the results to CheckCentral and create a companion Check to automate the status parsing.
Checks can be added from various locations in the CheckCentral interface, from the Dashboard, Checks page, Activity page, and the Check Group details page.
  • Begin by clicking "
    Add Check
    ."
Add Check
  • Select "Start Fresh," and click "Start."
Create Check
  • Name the Check. It can be whatever you like, for example
    Website Certificate Expiry Check
    .
  • Select an existing Check Group or create a new one by clicking
    Check Group icon
    Add Check Group
    .
  • Select an existing Label or create a new one by typing the name in the text field of the dropdown. (optional)
  • Add a description (optional).
  • The Asset ID is used exclusively with certain ticketing systems and is not required for Checks. Asset ID details and ticketing systems are more fully covered by other documents (e.g. Halo Integration (asset ID).)
  • Leave the Asset ID blank.
Your Check so far will look something like this:
Step 1: Identification
Navigate to the next step in CheckCentral by clicking the "Next" button or the tab name.
  • Leave "Scheduled" selected as we will be running the script regularly.
  • Assuming you'll run the script daily, leave the Expected Interval on "1" "Day(s)." If you plan to run the script on another interval, adjust accordingly.
  • The initial expectation time is set by the first email message that is received and processed by its Check. (For example, if a notification email arrives at noon and its Check is set for every half hour, it will expect another notification email at 12:30.)
  • Leave the Set as Overdue setting at "After 30 Minutes." If the script notification email is not received after this amount of time has been exceeded, the Check will be marked as a failure.
Leave Custom Schedule de-selected.
Step 2: Schedule
The Matching step is what matches a notification email to its specific Check. It's also where you'll set the notification's CheckCentral destination email. For CheckCentral to parse notification emails, they must be sent to a "mycheckcentral.cc" address. By default, the email address is [your organization name]@mycheckcentral.cc.
A more unique email address is created using the name given to the Check (with white spaces removed).
  • Leave the default selections enabled.
  • Copy the unique email address for later use by clicking on the Copy icon
    Copy icon
    .
Do not add any matching rules. The unique email address is sufficient.
Step 3: Matching
The email address will appear different based on your organization name and the name you specified for your check.
The previous Matching step identifies the incoming email to the Check. The Status step looks for indicators of what type of notification you're receiving (e.g. The job was successfully run, it failed, or there were some issues.) The configuration options you choose can vary considerably, but the approach is the same.
The Default Status is what is set when the other Rules in this step don't match. Criteria for the remaining statuses then need to be defined, requiring their own unique one-to-one matches.
  • Leave the Default Status on "Failure."
  • The "Success Criteria" section is where you'll set the criteria that will mark an activity as successful.
  • Click
    Add Success Rule
    .
  • A successful run (no certificates expired or expiring soon) of the script will have the word "SUCCESS" in the email Subject.
  • Set the rule to "Subject contains SUCCESS" by leaving the default dropdown selections and typing
    SUCCESS
    (all caps) in the empty text field.
  • The "Warning Criteria" section is where you'll set the criteria that will mark an activity with a warning.
  • Click
    Add Warning Rule
    .
Step 4: Status
A warning result (certificate(s) expiring soon) from the script will have the word "WARN" in the email Subject.
  • Set the rule to "Subject contains WARN" by leaving the default dropdown selections and typing
    WARN
    (all caps) in the empty text field.
Leave the Condense Whitespace and Combine Attachments checkboxes enabled.
Notification Fields
Notifications are simply how you want to be informed of Check Failures, Warnings, and some other Status changes.
Email, push, chat and other software can be integrated as well as ticketing systems, allowing for automatic ticket creation and management.
Further configuration is required for each to function and is done via the Notifications tab in the main menu. They can be configured before or after Check creation.
For more understanding of Notification setup, see the CheckCentral Beginner's Guide (Notifications).
  • Select the desired means of Notification. If in doubt of the selections here, leave the defaults.
  • From the Save tab, click the "Save Check" button.
With the Check configured in CheckCentral, you need to install the script onto a machine (where it will regularly run).
  • Download the script: CheckWebsiteCertExpiry.zip.
  • Extract it somewhere on the computer (e.g. C:\Scripts). There will be three files: CheckWebsiteCertificateExpiry.ps1, createScheduledTask.ps1, and websites.txt
  • Edit the websites.txt file to contain the list of websites you want the script to check. Save it. Make sure to put one URL on each line.
  • Open a PowerShell console and run the script to make sure it works. For example:

    Code

    .\CheckWebsiteCertExpiry.ps1 -Websites (Get-Content websites.txt) -EmailFromAddress {Email From Address} -EmailToAddress {Check Email Address}
  • Refresh the Check page or Dashboard to see the new Activity for your Check.
  • You're ready to set up the Windows Scheduled Task so the script will automatically run each day.
  • First, edit the parameters at the top of the CreateScheduledTask.ps1 script and save the changes.
  • You'll see the new Scheduled Task in the Windows Task Scheduler. Run it and verify that a second Activity shows up in the CheckCentral Check.
Test

DisplayFusion 9.5 Beta 1 Now Available!

January 23, 2019

We're very excited to announce that DisplayFusion 9.5 Beta 1 is now available for download! This version is mostly bug fixes for issues from 9.4.3.

Important Notes!

  • The first time you open the Settings > Screen Saver tab after installing 9.5 Beta 1, it will be very slow to open, due to Windows Defender locking the .scr files for a long time during the initial scan.
  • We've made a change to how refresh rates are set with Monitor Profiles. If you run into trouble with your profiles after updating, you may need to re-save them.
  • WallpaperFusion is now limited to slideshow intervals of 15 minutes or higher to reduce costs.

DisplayFusion 9.5 Beta 1 Highlights

  • Fixed a couple of Chrome issues with Monitor Splitting
  • The "Mirror Selected Area" function now works correctly when run via key combination
  • Updated Google Photos wallpaper source to the new API, as the old one is shutdown
  • Added search support for WallpaperAbyss wallpaper source
  • Fixed an issue with Image Info when using tag
  • Fixed the filter box in the WallpaperFusion tag selector
  • Using "Move Window to Next Monitor" on Remote Desktop windows now moves the connection bar as well
  • Fixed an issue where some refresh rates couldn't be set, note that you may need to re-save your Monitor Profiles.
  • Resolved an issue where Monitor Configuration wouldn't apply on some systems (including VMware with guest 3D acceleration disabled)

Updating DisplayFusion

We encourage everyone to update to this new version today to take advantage of these improvements. If you've already purchased DisplayFusion, it's a lifetime license, so you can upgrade to this version at no cost! If you would like to see a complete list of all the changes, please visit the DisplayFusion Beta Change Log.
