Secure Sockets Layer
The Secure Sockets Layer protocol is the standard for securing websites and transactions on the internet. This SSL protocol uses certificates to secure the data sent and to guarantee the identity of the owner of the certificate. By using an SSL Certificate on a website, a visitor can be sure that his data is sent securely via https. You can recognize a secure connection by https:// in your internet browser address bar and a padlock.
Which ssl certificate to buy? There are different types of SSL certificates. These have different prices and validation processes.
Domain Validation (DV)
This form of SSL is the simplest and cheapest. Only the domain ownership is checked and it uses basic encryption to send data. It is very useful if you want an “https://” address, but do not store any personal data of the visitor. Suitable for private websites.
Organization Validation (OV)
In addition to the domain check, the organization behind the domain is also checked at this level. This way you know who you are entrusting your confidential data to. As an applicant, you must provide information to be able to register everything correctly. This process is carried out by the certificate authority. Suitable for small organizations.
Extended Validation (EV)
With this SSL, the domain and the organization behind the domain are checked and the organization is checked in detail. This will be investigated legally, financially and operationally. This is done according to strict guidelines. The SSL offers the highest level of security and will show the organization’s data in the certificate. Very suitable for companies and webshops.
