I expect SAN in this case means Subject Alternative Name, not Storage Area Network.

Sigh... I wish people would use their words before trotting out possibly-ambiguous (or obscure) acronyms. It would help avoid confusion among readers who don't live and breathe the topic on the writer's mind.

There’s only one, and not really obscure, interpretation of this acronym in a technical forum post announcement from a TLS certificate authority, the context was sufficient.
