EV SSL certificate is the best way to provide a secure connection between your website and the internet. A digital certificate from EV SSL certifies that you have an approved public key infrastructure (PKI) for the encryption and decryption of data. It also confirms that the information sent by your server is encrypted, so no one will be able to intercept or read it later.
A digital certificate can also link you to other entities within the PKI system, such as a business partner or financial institution. You can use this information to verify that the person who issued your certificate is, in fact, who they claim to be and has authorized access to your website’s data.
What is an EV SSL Certificate
An EV SSL certificate is a digital security certificate issued by an entity known as a Certificate Authority. The CA is responsible for verifying that the website or application you’re visiting is legitimate, and so it has access to all your personal information, including your name, address, phone number, and e-mail address.
In addition, it can monitor your account activity to ensure that you’re only using it for approved purposes. An EV SSL certificate will provide extra assurance that the website or app you’re visiting is safe and secure.
It also means that you can use it when shopping online without worrying about having your credit card information compromised by hackers who might be able to intercept data sent back and forth between your browser and the website’s servers.
EV SSL Certificate and Domain
The EV SSL Certificate and Domain also feature perfect forward secrecy (PFS), which means that your information will never be compromised if a hacker gets access to your server or the key used by your web server software. It works for both multiple as well as a single domains. Let us have a look:
Single EV SSL Certificate
A single-domain SSL certificate protects only your website. It will not protect any additional domains or subdomains. The green padlock on your website’s address bar shows your website’s credibility, ensuring customers that the authority has performed the highest validation process before issuing the certificate.
Multiple EV SSL Certificate
EV Multi-Domain SSL is an extension of EV SSL, which allows you to secure your site with multiple domains. With this extension, you can secure your site using different DNS records for each domain.
For example, you could have one domain that serves ads, another domain that hosts user data, and yet another domain that serves content. Each domain would have its own TLS certificate and be served by a separate set of IP addresses.
This extension makes it possible for users to visit different domains without any problems. It also allows advertisers to serve different ads on each domain without having to worry about the performance of their ad networks or the security of their data centers.
Wildcard with EV SSL?
Additional Validation SSL cannot have wildcard features because wildcard secures an unlimited number of sub-domains under a single SSL, while EV SSL requires authentication of each domain contained in the certificate.
Additional Validation With an EV SSL certificate, there shouldn’t be any possibility of fraudulent issuance because SSL verifies the identity of the SSL seeker.
Why Purchase an EV SSL Certificate?
When you purchase an EV SSL certificate, you are purchasing a security service for your website. SSL certificates are used to encrypt the connection between your browser and the server that hosts your site. This prevents eavesdroppers from intercepting sensitive information when they would otherwise be able to do so.
When purchasing an EV SSL certificate, we will send you the certificate and its corresponding private key files. You will need to install these on each domain name server (DNS) in order for them to work correctly.
