Common Mark Certificate (CMC) by DigiCert
Common Mark Certificates allow organizations to place a brand logo in the Sender field of outbound emails, confirming the organization’s DMARC status and authenticated identity, and helping protect against phishing and spoof attacks.
Common Mark Certificates are similar to Verified Mark Certificates but do not require a registered trademark for usage. This allows a broader range of senders to add an additional layer of security to emails and help their recipients feel comfortable that the emails come from a legitimate source.
Order NowTo qualify for a Common Mark Certificate:
- The corresponding email domain must be configured to enforce DMARC
-
The corresponding brand logo must either:
- have at least year of previous public usage on a domain controlled by the applicant, or
- be an acceptable modification of a registered mark. (See Section 3.2.16 of the BIMI Group’s Minimum Security Requirements for Issuance of Mark Certificates for more details.)
- The logo file used for the Certified Mark Certificate must be an SVG file that adheres to the SVG-P/S profile.
Note: Currently, most image editing tools do not support the SVG-P/S profile and will require using a specific conversion tool or manually editing an SVG file. See guide for properly formatting the logo.
