DigiCert Assured ID Root CA
DigiCert Assured ID Root CA is a root CA certificate operated by DigiCert (RSA 2048, valid until 2031-11-10, SHA-256 3E9099B5). As of the latest CCADB data it is trusted for TLS server authentication by 2 of 4 major root stores: Apple, Microsoft.

The CCADB lists EV policy OID 2.23.140.1.3, 2.16.840.1.114412.2.1 for this root, but Mozilla does not mark it as EV-enabled.

"Trusted for TLS" means the store includes the root with the server-authentication trust bit (Mozilla "Websites", Apple serverAuth, Microsoft Server Authentication EKU). Microsoft "NotBefore" means only certificates issued before a cutoff date are still trusted. "Constrained" means the store applies extra restrictions.

Intermediate CAs issued by this root
The CCADB lists 64 intermediate CA certificates signed directly by DigiCert Assured ID Root CA: 28 currently valid, 23 expired and 13 revoked (revoked includes those whose parent was revoked).
Showing 20 of 64: valid certificates first, newest first. Each name links to its crt.sh entry by SHA-256; an arrow marks a cross-certificate for another root on this site.
Cross-signed versions
No certificate in the CCADB has the same subject and public key as DigiCert Assured ID Root CA with a different issuer, so a client has to carry DigiCert Assured ID Root CA itself in its root store to trust it.
CRL and OCSP addresses
In the root certificate
DigiCert Assured ID Root CA itself contains no CRL Distribution Points and no OCSP (Authority Information Access) extension. That is normal for a root: clients trust it directly and do not check its own revocation status.

What happens when it expires
DigiCert Assured ID Root CA is valid until 2031-11-10, about 5.0 years after this data snapshot (2026-11-10). From that day, browsers and operating systems that check trust-anchor expiry stop accepting chains that end at this root, so any certificate that can only chain to it fails validation. Android is a known exception: it does not enforce the expiry date of trust anchors.
Check whether your device trusts it
Each platform keeps its own root store. The commands below look up DigiCert Assured ID Root CA by common name (DigiCert Assured ID Root CA) or fingerprint. The store status in each heading comes from the CCADB snapshot; your device can differ if it is out of date or managed by an administrator.
macOS (Apple store: Included · Trusted for TLS)
Search the system roots keychain by common name. -Z prints the SHA-256 hash, which must match the fingerprint on the last line.
security find-certificate -a -c "DigiCert Assured ID Root CA" -Z \
/System/Library/Keychains/SystemRootCertificates.keychain | grep "SHA-256"
# SHA-256 hash: 3E9099B5015E8F486C00BCEA9D111EE721FABA355A89BCF1DF69561E3DC6325C
Windows (Microsoft store: Included · Trusted for TLS)
Windows identifies roots by SHA-1 thumbprint. It installs third-party roots on demand through Automatic Root Certificates Update, so "not found" can also mean the root has not been needed yet; certutil -generateSSTFromWU roots.sst downloads Microsoft's full list.
certutil -verifystore Root 0563B8630D62D75ABBC8AB1E4BDFB5A899B24D43
Linux (ca-certificates follows Mozilla: Included)
Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora and RHEL build their ca-certificates package from Mozilla's root store. Use trust list on p11-kit systems, or search the PEM bundle on Debian and Ubuntu.
# Fedora / RHEL / Arch (p11-kit)
trust list --filter=ca-anchors | grep -iF -A2 "DigiCert Assured ID Root CA"
# Debian / Ubuntu (ca-certificates)
openssl crl2pkcs7 -nocrl -certfile /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt \
| openssl pkcs7 -print_certs -noout | grep -iF "DigiCert Assured ID Root CA"
Java
Java ships its own cacerts keystore; JDK 9 and later accept -cacerts and the default store password is changeit. Search for the SHA-256 fingerprint in colon form.
keytool -list -cacerts -storepass changeit | grep -i "3E:90:99:B5:01:5E:8F:48:6C:00:BC:EA:9D:11:1E:E7:21:FA:BA:35:5A:89:BC:F1:DF:69:56:1E:3D:C6:32:5C"
Android
Android's system store is maintained by Google separately from the four CCADB stores above. Open Settings → Security & privacy → More security settings → Encryption & credentials → Trusted credentials → System (menu names vary by vendor and version) and look for DigiCert Inc → DigiCert Assured ID Root CA.
Which root does my site chain to?
List the chain your server sends and compare the last issuer with this root; the fingerprint check confirms a local copy.
# show subject (s:) and issuer (i:) of every certificate the server sends
openssl s_client -connect example.com:443 -servername example.com -showcerts </dev/null 2>/dev/null \
| grep -E '^ *[0-9]+ s:|^ *i:'
# subject and SHA-256 fingerprint of the downloaded PEM file
openssl x509 -in digicert-assured-id-root-ca.pem -noout -subject -fingerprint -sha256
# sha256 Fingerprint=3E:90:99:B5:01:5E:8F:48:6C:00:BC:EA:9D:11:1E:E7:21:FA:BA:35:5A:89:BC:F1:DF:69:56:1E:3D:C6:32:5C
