Does your organisation still use certificates with an RSA key-length of at most 1024 bits?

Certificates need to contain keys of sufficient length. For a certificate based on the RSA algorithm, a key of 1024 bits is too short. Large certificate providers have announced that they will no longer issue certificates with RSA keys of up to 1024 bits as of 1 January. Some of these providers will revoke certificates with RSA keys of up to 1024 bits that they have issued previously.
