Why Should You Choose EV SSL?

Some businesses, like healthcare, education, insurance and the ones mentioned earlier often store, process, or transmit sensitive data. What’s more? They’re the most common targets for attackers. For such industries, it is not only advisable to opt for an EV SSL but also crucial for maintaining customer safety.

Let’s take a look at some incredible benefits that comes with EV SSL certificates:

  • State-of-the-art Encryption and Security: It uses 256-bit symmetric encryption alongside a 2048-bit RSA signature key. Additionally, all EV SSLs disallow wildcard support to minimize the likelihood of phishing and provide comparatively higher protection against such attacks to its customers.
  • Customer Trust and Brand Reputation: An EV SSL, issued by a trusted certificate authority (CA), provides the maximum possible guarantee that the business is genuine as compared to any other certificate. It also allows businesses to prove their trustworthiness on account of the stringent validation process and boosts brand reputation.
  • Highest Warranty: It comes equipped with the highest warranty amount to insure you in the unlikely event of any troubles with your certificate due to issues on the CA’s end. The warranty amount will vary depending on the type of EV SSL and from whom you buy the certificate.
  • Timely Customer Support: Another major benefit of purchasing a certificate from a trusted CA or one of the reputed third-party resellers is the 24x7 support that is only available for commercial digital certificates.
  • Compatibility: EV SSL certificates are compatible with all major browsers on desktop and mobile platforms.
  • Issuance Time: It typically takes longer to issue an EV SSL on account of the in-depth vetting process carried out by the CA. An EV SSL is usually issued within 3-7 days, though if you need it faster, you can request to expedite the process.

What Is Required to Clear the EV Vetting Process?

An EV SSL certificate commands the highest customer trust owing to the intensity of the validation process conducted by the CA. In order to acquire one, you’ll need to fulfill the following verification steps:

  1. Enrollment Form –A single page request form used to ascertain that the applicant is authorized to request the certificate on the organization’s behalf.
  2. Organization Authentication – The CA examines the organization’s registration information to establish whether it is a legitimate legal entity.
  3. Operational Existence – The CA verifies that your organization is functional in the present moment.
  4. Physical Address – The CA investigates if your business has a verifiable physical presence in the country where it is registered and if that address matches the one provided in the certificate signing request (CSR).
  5. Telephone Verification – If your business has a publicly listed telephone number in working condition, this requirement is an easy one to meet.
  6. Domain Authentication – Verify your domain ownership to the CA via email confirmation or other methods.
  7. Final Verification Call – A quick call to verify the order details before issuing the certificate.
