Métodos suportados de validação do controle do domínio (DCV) para pré-validação do domínio
Pré-validação do domínio: Métodos DCV
Antes de ser possível que a DigiCert emita um certificado SSL/TLS, você deve demonstrar controle sobre os domínios e quaisquer SANs (Nomes alternativos da entidade) no pedido. Referimo-nos a este processo como o processo de Validação de controle do domínio (DCV).
A DigiCert atualmente suporta estes métodos DCV:
Email para contato DNS TXT
Email para contato DNS TXT
Email construído

End of life for the WHOIS-based Email
On May 8, 2025, DigiCert ended support for the WHOIS-based domain control validation method (DCV) email method. DigiCert systems have stopped querying WHOIS entirely to find email addresses for domain validations. To learn more about this change, see our knowledge base article, End of life for WHOIS-based DCV methods.
What should I do?
Update your domain validation process to use one of the other supported DCV methods. To continue using the Email DCV method, use the DNS TXT record email contacts or the Constructed email method.
DNS CNAME
DNS TXT

To validate your domains, you can prevalidate your domains or do the DCV as part of the certificate request process. Per industry standards, a domain's validation is valid for 397 days (approximately 13 months).
Domain prevalidation
CertCentral features a domain prevalidation process that allows you to validate your domains before you begin ordering certificates for them. Validating the domain ahead of time allows for quicker certificate issuance.
For immediate certificate issuance, Domain prevalidation is required. See OV/EV certificate immediate issuance.

DV TLS certificates don't support domain prevalidation
Each time you order a DV TLS certificate, you must demonstrate control over the domains on the order. Once you submit the order, you need to finish the domain validation before DigiCert can issue your DV certificate. See Supported DCV methods for validating the domains on DV TLS/SSL certificate orders.
Demonstrating control over domains on DV/OV/EV TSL/SSL certificate orders
While ordering a certificate, you select a DCV method to demonstrate control over the domains on the order. On the certificate's Order details page, use the DCV method selected during the order process to validate your domains. You can always switch validation methods if needed. See Demonstrate control over domains on a pending certificate order.
Método DCV do e-mail
With this validation method, DigiCert sends two sets of DCV emails: DNS TXT-based and constructed.
Para demonstrar controle sobre o domínio, um destinatário do e-mail segue as instruções em um e-mail de confirmação enviado para o domínio. O processo de confirmação consiste em visitar o link disponibilizado e seguir as instruções da página.
Note: DigiCert sends this email from no-reply@digitalcertvalidation.com. If using allowlist, make sure to include digitalcertvalidation.com.
See Add a domain and validate it using the Email DCV method.
E-mail para DNS TXT entre em contato com método DCV
For this method, DigiCert sends an authorization email to the email in the DNS TXT record on the _validation-contactemail
subdomain of the domain being validated. While validating a domain, make sure to select the Verification email DCV method.
To configure your CertCentral Email DCV method to send the confirmation email to DNS TXT contacts, do the following:
Place the DNS TXT record on the
_validation-contactemail
subdomain of the domain you want to validate. The RDATA value of this text record must be a valid email address.Nome
TTL
Mensagem
_validation-contactemail
Padrão
validatedominio@digicerttest.com
DigiCert recommends adding a distribution list rather than a personal email address. A distribution list allows you to create a "non-expiring" email address to which you can add or remove people if necessary.
Update your CertCentral account settings to send the verification DCV emails to Org/Tech/Admin contacts from DNS TXT.
In CertCentral, in the left menu, go to Settings > Preferences.
On the Preferences page, select Advanced Settings.
In the Domain Control Validation (DCV) section under Send verification DCV emails to, select Org/Tech/Admin contacts from DNS TXT.
Go to the bottom of the page and select Save Settings.
See our instructions for Adding a domain and validate it using the Email DCV method.
Método DCV do e-mail construído
Para o método de Email Construído, a DigiCert envia o email de autorização para cinco endereços de email construídos para o domínio: admin, administrador, webmaster, hostmaster e postmaster @[domain_name].
If we can't find an MX record for [domain_name], you must use another supported DCV methods to demonstrate your control over the domain. See MX records (mail exchanger records).
Background
While registering a domain, you must provide contact information, such as administrative and technical contacts. Instead of using a personal email address, you can use one of the constructed email addresses for your domain, such as webmaster@yourdomain. Using a constructed email address allows you to create a "non-expiring" email address that you can add or remove people from if necessary.
Registros MX (Mail Exchanger Records)
Antes de podermos enviar com sucesso um e-mail de autenticação (e-mail DCV) para o proprietário do domínio (ou controlador de domínio), devemos verificar se existe um registro MX (um registro de recurso no Sistema de Nomes de Domínio [DNS]) nos registros DNS do destinatário nome do domínio. A presença de registros MX válidos nos permite enviar o e-mail de autenticação.
Por exemplo, você deseja receber seu e-mail DCV em um dos endereços de e-mail construídos para exemplo.com, admin@exemplo.com. Para que haja o envio com êxito de um e-mail DCV para admin@exemplo.com, primeiro devemos encontrar um registro MX para tal endereço que identifica o servidor (por ex., mailhost.exemplo.com) configurado para receber os e-mails destinados para admin@exemplo.com
Método DNS TXT DCV
Adicione um token gerado pela DigiCert (fornecido para o domínio em sua conta CertCentral) ao DNS do domínio como um registro TXT. Quando a DigiCert fizer uma pesquisa por um registro DNS TXT associado ao domínio, podemos encontrar um registro que inclui o token de verificação da DigiCert.
Método DNS CNAME DCV
If your domain has a CNAME record pointing to another domain (for example, yourdomain.com points to yourdomain.net), use this method to validate your domain.
To set up your domain's CNAME record, add the static prefix _dnsauth
to the hostname field and [random_value].dcv.digicert.com
as the CNAME target. Once DigiCert checks for a DNS CNAME record for your domain, we can find a record that includes the DigiCert-generated random value.
Consulte Adicionar um domínio, autorizar o domínio para certificados e usar CNAME de DNS como o método DCV.
Método DCV de Demonstração Prática HTTP (também chamado de Arquivo ou FileAuth)
Use the HTTP Practical Demonstration DCV methods to demonstrate control over fully qualified domain names (FQDNs) exactly as named. To learn more, go to Domain Validation Policy Changes.
Validating IPv4 and IPv6 address
Per industry regulations, you must use the HTTP Practical Demonstration DCV method to demonstrate control over IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
Use one of the other supported DCV methods to:
Validate wildcard domains, such as *.example.com.
Include subdomains in the validation while validating a higher-level domain. For example, if you want to cover www.example.com, mail.example.com, and one.example.com while validating the higher-level domain example.com.
Validate entire domains and subdomains.
HTTP Practical Demonstration
Host a file containing a DigiCert generated random value (provided for the domain in your CertCentral account) at a predetermined location on your website: http://{domain-name}/.well-known/pki-validation/fileauth.txt
.
Once you create the file and place it on your site, DigiCert goes to the specified URL to confirm the presence of our random value. See Adicionar um domínio, autorizar o domínio para certificados e usar a demonstração prática de HTTP como o método de validação.
HTTP Practical Demonstration with unique filename
Host a file with a random filename containing a DigiCert-generated random value at a predetermined location: http://{domain-name}/.well-known/pki-validation/{unique-filename}.txt
.
Once you create the file and place it on your site, DigiCert goes to the specified URL to confirm the presence of our random value. See Validate a Domain using HTTP practical demonstration with unique filename.
Atenção
DV TLS certificates don’t support the HTTP Practical Demonstration with unique filename DCV method.
