About the mark

What is the Digital Trust Mark?

The Digital Trust Mark is a visible trust signal awarded by .IE, Ireland's official national domain registry. It shows customers that your online presence has been independently assessed against recognised standards.

Businesses that score 70% or higher receive an A grade and can display the mark for 12 months on their website, email signatures and other communications.

It is available to any Irish organisation using any domain extension - .ie, .com, .eu or others.

What's assessed

Built on Three Fundamentals

28 indicators across three areas - covering modern internet standards and recognised best practice for Irish businesses.

Domain

Who you are online. If the domain is not properly protected, nothing built on it is.

DNSSEC DNS hygiene Registry lock

Website

What people see and interact with. This is where trust is tested every single day.

SSL/TLS Security headers Software currency

Email

Who is allowed to speak as you. Weak email security leaves your brand open to impersonation.
