About this organization
Mission
Our mission is to reduce financial, technological, and educational barriers to secure communication over the Internet. We're focused on building a more secure and privacy-respecting Internet. We realize this aim via our projects: Let's Encrypt, the world's largest certificate authority providing free TLS certs for hundreds of millions of websites; Divvi Up, a service for privacy-respecting metrics; and Prossimo, a project focused on providing memory safety for the Internet's most critical infrastructure.
About
ISRG was founded in May of 2013 to serve as a home for public-benefit digital infrastructure projects, the first of which was the Let's Encrypt certificate authority. ISRG's founding directors were Josh Aas and Eric Rescorla. The group's founding sponsors and partners were Mozilla, the Electronic Frontier Foundation, the University of Michigan, Cisco, and Akamai. In 2021, ISRG launched two new digital security projects: Prossimo, a memory safety project, and Divvi Up, a privacy-preserving metrics system.
