Understanding the Sectigo Certificate SSL Guarantee

Update 08/06/2026

The Sectigo guarantee is a financial commitment from Sectigo, the Certificate Authority (CA), designed to protect the end-user.

It applies only if the user suffers a financial loss due to a validation error by Sectigo during certificate issuance.

It does not cover security vulnerabilities in your server or incorrect configurations on your part.

The higher the validation level (DV < OV < EV), the higher the amount of the Sectigo guarantee is generally.
