DigiCert update
In the latter half of 2023, Cloudflare will begin deprecating DigiCert as a Certificate Authority available for a variety of certificates:
Scope
This migration only affects Universal, Advanced and Cloudflare for SaaS certificates where the certificate has been provisioned by Cloudflare using DigiCert as certificate authority.
Also, this change will not impact existing certificates issued from DigiCert that Cloudflare is currently serving, but it will impact new certificate orders and renewals.
Consider each specific migration guide for actions you might have to take and refer to CAs and certificates FAQ for commonly asked questions about the Cloudflare offerings and CAs that are used.
