Secure Sockets Layer
Secure Sockets Layer is a standard protocol for protecting websites and online transactions. SSL certificates encrypt transmitted data and help verify the identity of the certificate owner. An SSL certificate helps visitors know that their data is transmitted securely over HTTPS. You can recognise a secure connection by HTTPS and the padlock in your browser address bar.
Which SSL certificate should you choose? Different certificate types have different validation processes and prices.
Domain Validation (DV)
This is the simplest and most affordable SSL option. Only domain ownership is checked, and the certificate provides standard encryption for transmitted data. It is suitable when you need HTTPS without storing visitors’ personal data. Suitable for personal websites.
Organization Validation (OV)
In addition to domain ownership, the organisation behind the domain is verified. Applicants must provide company information, which is checked by the certificate authority. Suitable for small organisations.
Extended Validation (EV)
With this SSL type, both the domain and the organisation are verified in detail. Legal, financial and operational checks are performed under strict guidelines, and the organisation’s details are shown in the certificate. Highly suitable for businesses and online stores.
