Windows 11 auto-replaces expiring Secure Boot certificates to preserve boot integrity

Microsoft is automatically updating expiring Secure Boot certificates on eligible Windows 11 24H2/25H2 devices via quality updates, with a phased rollout to high-confidence machines; admins can also deploy certificates manually via registry, WinCS, or Group Policy. To avoid boot issues, devices must receive the updates before the June 2026 expiry, or risk losing Windows Boot Manager and Secure Boot protections; administrators should inventory devices, verify Secure Boot status, update firmware, then apply the certificate updates.

"Philosophy Departments Offer Ethics Certificates to Non-Majors"

Philosophy departments in universities across the US are offering ethics certificates to nonmajors in an effort to increase enrollment and raise the profile of philosophy on campus. The certificates require a few courses in ethics and society and will be listed on earners' transcripts. The move comes as philosophy majors have seen a decline in enrollment in recent years, prompting departments to revamp their offerings and focus more on issue-centered courses. The American Philosophical Association encourages departments to consider changing the names of courses to attract a wider audience and to offer courses on timely topics in culture and society.
