- xrstf 11y agoIt's the public certificate audit log. It's not an accidental data leak.
- blfr 11y agoCertificate transparency makes it much harder to surreptitiously issue a certificate and holds the offending CA responsible in case of unauthorized certificates. If your site is not public, you're better off with your own private CA anyway.

- dan1234 11y agoIt’s intentional. The general idea is to make it easier to detect fraudulently issued certificates. LetsEncrypt submit all certificates[0] to Certificate Transparency[1] logs. Chrome won’t actually show the green address bar for EV certs unless a CT proof is provided along with the certificate[2].

Also the server for LetsEncrypt is open source [1] and comes with test scripts to run it during development and testing to avoid premature exposure to the public instance of LetsEncrypt.
