Since the article itself only linked to it: "Each of the discovered vulnerabilities allowed any @yahoo.com email account to be compromised simply by sending a specially crafted link to a logged-in Yahoo user and making him/her clicking on it."[1] [1] https://www.htbridge.com/news/what_s_your_email_security_worth_12_doll…

Nice article. At my company, $9 per year SSL through namecheap means we go with that for the support, which has come in handy. For non-critical things and my personal stuff I am on letsencrypt. If you are looking to go beyond this article, use a free SSL scanner such as https://www.htbridge.com/ssl/ which will dig into cipher suites which comes into play with HIPAA and PCI.
