Before certificate transparency logs, there was zero accountability behind the verification process proving control of any domain.
Malicious players could exploit weak or faulty security policies to impersonate a web domain and take advantage of the brand and its customers' digital trust.
DigiCert pioneered verification accountability when we launched Certificate Log monitoring in 2010. Now, DigiCert is part of a global coalition working to protect the internet for all businesses, governments and users. This coalition uses Certificate Transparency (CT) Logs to watch for signs of certificates issued against all domains—deliberately, accidentally or maliciously.
DigiCert CT Log Monitoring checks every certificate issued against your domains 24/7 to be sure you own and control all the certificates for your domains. If someone else issues a certificate against your domain name—whether maliciously or in violation of policy—CT Log Monitoring detects the aberration and alerts you immediately.
When you buy a Secure Site Pro certificate, your website’s domain is logged, then monitored around the clock with our service.
