certificate transparency audit
Certificate Transparency (CT) audit is a process used to verify that digital certificates for websites have been properly issued and recorded in public logs. It helps ensure that only legitimate certificates are used, preventing malicious or unauthorized ones from being used to impersonate websites. During an audit, authorities or auditors check these public logs to confirm that certificates are transparent, accurately documented, and free from tampering. This boosts security by making it harder for attackers to misuse certificates and helps organizations maintain trustworthiness in their online communications.
