Installing and Managing Paid SSL Certificates


 

Paid SSL Certificates

 

There are 3 different levels of Paid SSL Certificates that are provided by We Are Web Services. They include Domain Validated (DV) , Organization Validated (OV), and Extended Validation (EV) Certificates. The major difference between the types of certificate relates to the information the Certificate Authority, RapidSSL, GeoTrust and Symantec, requires and validates in order to issue a certificate. The higher levels of certificate require more information, and often is displayed in the browser bar. EV SSL for example turns the browser bar green and displays the organization name to visitors to generate more trust.

 


 

Wildcard SSL Certificates

 

A Wildcard SSL certificate provides the same encryption and authentication features as other SSL certificates but can also be applied to an unlimited number of subdomains of a website. A Wildcard SSL certificate supports the root domain (example.com) as well as its subdomains.
