Encryption Everywhere DV TLS CA - G1 TLS Certificate

Encryption Everywhere DV TLS CA - G1 is a publicly trusted intermediate certificate authority operated by DigiCert (Encryption Everywhere program) and chained to DigiCert Global Root CA. It is recognized by all mainstream browsers and operating system trust stores, so the certificate itself is not a phishing indicator - the same intermediate signs millions of legitimate sites. phishunt only flags the specific domains listed below as suspicious; Encryption Everywhere DV TLS CA - G1 as a CA is fine.

DigiCert (Encryption Everywhere program) issues RSA domain-validated certificates automatically and at no cost (or very low cost), which is the exact workflow scammers need to put HTTPS on a throwaway domain. Domain validation only proves that the requester controls the domain name, not that the site behind it is trustworthy. phishunt lists the specific domains currently flagged below — those are the suspicious ones, not Encryption Everywhere DV TLS CA - G1 itself.

In a desktop browser, click the padlock in the address bar and open the certificate viewer. Confirm the issuer chain ends at DigiCert Global Root CA, that the subject matches the domain you expect, and that the notAfter date has not passed. A valid Encryption Everywhere DV TLS CA - G1 certificate only proves TLS was negotiated correctly — always verify the domain name itself belongs to the service you intended to visit.

Encryption Everywhere DV TLS CA - G1 and its siblings (Thawte TLS RSA CA G1, RapidSSL TLS RSA CA G1, GeoTrust TLS RSA CA G1) share the same operator (DigiCert (Encryption Everywhere program)) and roll up to the same root (DigiCert Global Root CA). CAs rotate multiple intermediates so that if one key ever has to be revoked, the damage is contained. As a user, you can treat all of them as the same trust anchor.
