Chromium Certificate Transparency Policy
This repository contains documents related Chromium's Certificate Transparency policies, such as the Certificate Transparency Log Policy.
Their contents can be discussed in the ct-policy@chromium.org forum.
For Certificate Authorities
In order to help protect users of the Chromium Projects, CAs are expected to support Certificate Transparency. This allows users, the Chromium Authors, and the public to verifiably audit that CAs are conforming to the policies set out in Chromium's Root Certificate Policy.
Chromium requires all publicly-trusted TLS certificates issued after April 30, 2018 to support CT as described in the Certificate Transparency in Chrome Policy. Extended Validation (EV) TLS certificates issued before this date are also required to support CT in order to be recognized as an EV certificate in Chromium.
For Log Operators
In order for a Log to be included within Chromium, it must meet the requirements of the Certificate Transparency Log Policy. The Log Policy describes the steps for Log Operators to submit Logs for inclusion within Chromium.
Recognized Logs
The following table includes information about the Certificate Transparency Logs that are recognized by Chromium. It includes information about who operates the log, the name the log has been given, and the URL that can be used for logging certificates or inspecting the certificates that have been logged.
Note: The authoritative list is maintained in the Chromium code base. This is merely informational.
