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.

If you don't know how to interpret "SAN" in a blog post from a TLS certificate issuer, I don't think you're the target audience for this post.

OK, but how hard is a link to Wikipedia?
