MexicoMexico's top sites: post-quantum TLS, October 2026
The 989 most visited sites in Mexico — the top-1,000 popularity bucket of the Chrome UX Report for September 2026 — scanned on with the same scanner as the rest of the issue. 942 of them completed a handshake.

The details
Leaf certificate key algorithms

| ECDSA | 474 | 50.3% |
| RSA | 468 | 49.7% |
Exact key types
Curve for elliptic-curve keys, modulus size for RSA.

| RSA-3072 | 2 | 0.2% |
Issuing CAs, and what they issue
Issuing intermediates folded into the operator behind them. The bar is the CA's share; the table shows how the same certificates split between ECDSA and RSA.

Protocol negotiated by a modern client
What our scanner and the server agreed on when both were free to pick the best available version.

Response to a deliberately obsolete handshake
A separate connection per domain, offering nothing above TLS 1.1 (and, where that succeeds, a second one capped at TLS 1.0).

| Refused TLS 1.0 and 1.1 | 632 | 67.1% |

Certificate lifetime distribution
Total notBefore → notAfter validity of the leaf certificate, for the 942 domains measured. The highlighted bucket is the one that already satisfies the 2029 limit.
Show the numbers as a table
| Lifetime | Domains | Share |
|---|---|---|
| ≤ 47 days | 8 | 0.8% |
| 48–100 days | 512 | 54.4% |
| 101–200 days | 284 | 30.1% |
| 201–398 days | 138 | 14.6% |
| > 398 days | 0 | 0% |
90 days
median lifetime; the mean is 163.9 days, the shortest 30 and the longest 397
55.2%
would already satisfy the 100-day cap that starts in March 2027
0.8%
would already satisfy the 47-day cap that starts in March 2029 — 8 certificates in total

Most frequent findings
Every observation the grader made, ranked by how many domains it applied to. Green is praise, amber is a deduction, red is disqualifying.
