Let's Encrypt is planning a 6-day TLS certificate for next year.

> Our longstanding offering won’t fundamentally change next year, but we
> are going to introduce a new offering that’s a big shift from anything
> we’ve done before - short-lived certificates. Specifically,
> certificates with a lifetime of six days. This is a big upgrade for
> the security of the TLS ecosystem because it minimizes exposure time
> during a key compromise event.
