A method of combining digital certificates at a prescheduled time is provided. The method includes receiving, by a processor, data from a first certificate and data from a second certificate and determining a certificate combination date. The certificate combination date directs a combining of the first certificate and the second certificate to form a combined certificate. The method further includes detecting the occurrence of the certificate combination date and combining the first certificate and the second certificate to form the combined certificate in response to detecting the occurrence of the certificate combination date.
