SSL Certificates
What is EV SSL and why does my business need it?
Extended Validation (EV) SSL Certificates offer the highest level of security, trust, and validation available. Unlike Domain Validated (DV) SSLs, which only check if you control a domain, an EV SSL requires a rigorous auditing process of your business registration details.
Benefits of EV SSL:
1. Audited Identity: Displays authenticated business organization details to visitors when they click the address padlock.
2. Increased Conversions: Reassures customers that they are dealing with a registered legal corporation, reducing shopping cart abandonment.
3. Massive Warranty: EV SSLs include up to $1,500,000 in warranty protection against security breaches.
We recommend EV SSL certificates for ecommerce platforms, bank backends, and corporate websites dealing with sensitive personal customer data.
