Signed certificate timestamp

In Internet security, Signed Certificate Timestamp (SCT) Auditing is a Google-developed mechanism to verify the validity of digital certificates, specifically those used in Certificate Transparency (CT) standard. Its purpose is to validate SCTs, which are promises made by certificate log operators to certificate authorities to include their freshly made signature in their log.[1] These promises are augmented with MMD - Maximum Merge Delay - to assure that this addition occurs within a reasonable time frame.[2]
