DigiCert Mark Certificates
Brand security and protection against domain impersonation attacks.
Verified Mark Certificates
Pair your GeoTrust certificate with a DigiCert® Verified Mark Certificate (VMC) to deliver trusted email communications directly to customer inboxes.
By combining with email authentication standards (BIMI, DMARC, DKIM, SPF), a VMC gives email recipients an instant visual clue that your message is really from you. For trademarks protected by prior use, choose a Common Mark Certificate. Choose a VMC for registered trademarks and government seals.

Features
Combat Phishing
A VMC allows you to show your verified logo in the user’s inbox as a visual indicator that your communications are authentic, helping recipients quickly identify phishing attempts and fraudulent messages.
Bolster Email Security
Since VMCs require you to verify your use of strong email authentication standards, your organization will also benefit from increased visibility, security and deliverability.
Elevate Your Content
VMCs make it easy to extend your organization’s visual brand to one of the most competitive and widely used digital locations. You can improve your recognition and reach while gaining stronger email security and validation.
