Compare advanced TLS certificate offerings

Advanced TLS certificate offerings extend standard TLS certificates with additional capabilities such as monitoring, validation prioritization, and flexible domain management. These offerings are designed for environments with higher operational or scalability requirements.

Secure Site certificates

  • Priority validation processing

  • Enhanced Certificate Transparency (CT) monitoring and visibility

  • Additional lifecycle insights and support options

  • Common use cases: environments where uptime, monitoring, and operational assurance are important

Flex certificates

  • Support for multiple validation types (DV, OV, and EV)

  • Flexible Subject Alternative Name (SAN) management

  • Reduced operational overhead for large certificate portfolios

  • Common use cases: dynamic environments with large or evolving domain portfolios

Use Secure Site certificates when monitoring, visibility, and validation prioritization are important. Use Flex certificates when managing large or dynamic domain inventories.
