¶ºÒõ¹Ý Is First Certificate Authority to Enable Certificate Transparency by Default

Meggie Woodfield

Today, ¶ºÒõ¹Ý enabled Certificate Transparency (CT) by default for all new EV SSL Certificates issued. issued after January 1, 2015 to show the green bar in Google Chrome.

¶ºÒõ¹Ý is the first Certificate Authority (CA) to enable CT by default. Additionally, ¶ºÒõ¹Ý has taken measures to ensure that all existing ¶ºÒõ¹Ý EV SSL Certificates are included in Google’s whitelist so they will continue to show the green bar.

Starting January 1, any CA issuing two-year EV certificates must include proofs from three logs. This means that all CAs must use the two available Google logs and the ¶ºÒõ¹Ý log to achieve compliance with the Google requirement and for their certificates to show the green bar.

Any new ¶ºÒõ¹Ý EV certificates issued after today will include the required number of CT proofs embedded in them.

¶ºÒõ¹Ý customers who would like to enable CT for their other non-EV SSL Certificates can do so by contacting ¶ºÒõ¹Ý support. Customers can also contact support to change the SCT delivery method.
