Description-en: Certificate Transparency Log Monitor
Cert Spotter is a Certificate Transparency log monitor from SSLMate that
alerts you when a SSL/TLS certificate is issued for one of your domains.
Cert Spotter is easier than other open source CT monitors, since it does
not require a database. It's also more robust, since it uses a special
certificate parser that ensures it won't miss certificates.
.
Cert Spotter is also available as a hosted service by SSLMate,

.
You can use Cert Spotter to detect:
* Certificates issued to attackers who have compromised a certificate
authority and want to impersonate your site.
* Certificates issued to attackers who are using your infrastructure
to serve malware.
* Certificates issued in violation of your corporate policy
or outside of your centralized certificate procurement process.
* Certificates issued to your infrastructure providers without your
consent.
