FAQs
What’s the difference between SSL certificates?
Domain validation (DV) — Inexpensive, essential protection recommended for personal or hobby sites where consumer trust is not a major factor and transactions aren’t taking place. DV certificates are issued in minutes by providing proof of domain ownership via a simple email validation process. Organization validation (OV) — Affordable protection recommended for small to mid-size businesses where validation of the company is essential. OV is best for sites with low-volume e-commerce transactions. The certificate authority confirms that the business associated with the domain name is registered and legitimate before issuing the certificate, which takes about 1-2 days. Extended validation (EV) — Proven to boost customer confidence. Recommended for mid-sized to enterprise sites where customer confidence is vital. It’s a must for websites with transactions for payments, online banking, and e-commerce. EV certificates are issued in 1-5 days, after the completion of a strict validation process that follows standardized industry guidelines.
What is the difference between SAN and wildcard certificates?
SAN (Subject Alternate Name) certificates protect multiple domain names under a single certificate. For example, a single SAN certificate can cover opensrs.com, opensrs.org, and opensrs.net. Wildcard certificates protect unlimited subdomains within a single domain under a single certificate. For instance, a single wildcard certificate can cover the primary domain, opensrs.com, as well as its subdomain, help.opensrs.com.
What are the benefits of SSL?
Securing a website creates peace of mind. It’s an industry-standard practice; most browsers will display a warning when a site does not have an SSL certificate. Many website visitors immediately know their data is protected when they see HTTPS at the start of a URL. More savvy customers may examine the type of certificate and the level of validation it offers for assurance that the site is legitimate.
