Sectigo CaaS

Digital Certificate

Deploy an SSL certificate to enable HTTPS encryption of websites, trusted identity authentication, prevent against data leaks or tampering during transmission, and improve website credibility and brand image.

Why Choose Sectigo CaaS?

Shorter certificate lifespans (e.g., 47-day SSL/TLS certificates) are becoming the new norm. Manual certificate management is time-consuming, non-scalable, and prone to human error. Sectigo CaaS automates certificate management, eliminates errors, reduces downtime, and frees website operators from manual burdens to focus on core business—not certificate management.

Sectigo CaaS FAQs

QWhat is Sectigo CaaS?

Sectigo CaaS is a product that automates certificate issuance, validation, and lifecycle management via the ACME protocol. By subscribing to specific domains, ACME client operators can obtain unlimited certificates during the subscription period.

QWhat is the ACME protocol?

The ACME protocol (Automated Certificate Management Environment) automates certificate issuance and management, enabling automatic certificate issuance and renewal without manual intervention, reducing human error risks, and ensuring business continuity.

QWhich certificates does Sectigo CaaS support?

Sectigo CaaS supports Domain Validated (DV) SSL certificates (available now), Organization Validated (OV) SSL certificates (coming soon), including single-domain, multi-domain, and wildcard SSL certificates. Extended Validation (EV) SSL certificates are not supported.

QDoes Sectigo CaaS use DNS, HTTP, or email validation?

ACME offers multiple domain validation methods. Sectigo CaaS supports DNS-based (dns-01) and HTTP-based (http-01) methods. Email validation is not supported by ACME as it cannot be automated.

QWhat is the cost of Sectigo CaaS?

Sectigo CaaS is priced as an annual or multi-year subscription. It does not significantly increase the annual cost of equivalent certificates.

QIf we have nicsrs.com and www.nicsrs.com, are two FQDNs charged? Or does a nicsrs.com subscription cover nicsrs.com, www.nicsrs.com, and .nicsrs.com?

If *.nicsrs.com is added to the subscription, www.nicsrs.com is covered by the wildcard domain with no extra charge. If nicsrs.com is subscribed first and www.nicsrs.com is added later, only one FQDN fee applies.
