Will DigiCert log all certificates to public CT Logs?

By default, all publicly-trusted SSL certificates are submitted to public Certificate Transparency logs ("CT logged").

  • Standard SSL
  • Multi-Domain SSL
  • Wildcard SSL
  • Extended Validation SSL
  • EV Multi-Domain SSL
  • Grid Host SSL

CT logging doesn’t apply to your private SSL/TLS certificates. DigiCert will not log the following types of certificates:
