    Thumbs up

    Yes, there are different types of SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) certificates. SSL certificates are used to establish secure, encrypted connections between a web server and a client, such as a web browser. They help protect sensitive information, such as passwords and credit card numbers, that are transmitted over the internet by encrypting the data.

    There are several different types of SSL certificates, including:

    1) Domain Validation (DV) SSL certificates: These certificates verify the ownership of a domain, but do not verify the identity of the business or organization that owns the domain. DV SSL certificates are typically issued within a few minutes and are suitable for small websites or blogs that do not handle sensitive information.

    2) Organization Validation (OV) SSL certificates: These certificates not only verify the ownership of a domain, but also verify the identity of the business or organization that owns the domain. OV SSL certificates typically take longer to issue because the certificate authority (CA) must verify the organization's information.

    3) Extended Validation (EV) SSL certificates: These certificates provide the highest level of validation and trust. In addition to verifying the ownership of a domain and the identity of the organization, EV SSL certificates also require the CA to verify the legal, physical, and operational existence of the organization. EV SSL certificates are typically used by large, well-known websites that handle sensitive information.

    4) Wildcard SSL certificates: These certificates can be used to secure multiple subdomains of a domain using a single certificate. Wildcard SSL certificates are convenient for websites with many subdomains, as they allow the website owner to secure all of them with a single certificate.

    5) Multi-domain SSL certificates: Also known as SAN (Subject Alternative Name) or UCC (Unified Communications Certificate) certificates, these certificates allow a single certificate to secure multiple domains. They are often used by organizations that have multiple websites or domains that need to be secured.

    Extended Validation, EV SSL, Organization Validation, OV SSL, and Domain Validation (DV SSL) are the three varieties of SSL Certificates that are available today. There is no difference between the encryption levels of any of the certificates.

    Hey there!

    Yes, indeed there are different types of SSL certificates. SSL stands for Secure Sockets Layer, and it's now referred to as TLS (Transport Layer Security). These certificates serve to secure data transmission between a client (e.g. a web browser) and a server (e.g. a website).

    The most common types of SSL certificates are:

    Domain Validated (DV) SSL Certificates: These certificates verify the ownership of a domain name. They're issued quickly, usually within minutes, and are the most affordable SSL certificate option.

    Organization Validated (OV) SSL Certificates: These certificates are similar to DV certificates but provide a little more trust to your website visitors. In addition to verifying domain ownership, OV certificates also verify the legal, physical and operational existence of your organization.

    Extended Validation (EV) SSL Certificates: EV certificates are the most trusted and secure SSL certificates available. They undergo a rigorous and comprehensive vetting process, which verifies not only domain ownership and organization details but also the identity of the organization's representatives. As a result, an EV SSL certificate is the best choice for e-commerce websites, financial institutions, and other high-value websites that require the highest level of trust and security.

    Wildcard SSL Certificates: These certificates secure an unlimited number of subdomains under a single domain name. For example, a Wildcard SSL certificate for example.com would secure both www.example.com and shop.example.com.

    Let’s explore different types of SSL certificates;


    Domain Validated SSL certificates also known as Standard SSL certificates, which encrypt small and medium range websites information through 256bit standard encryption technology on the Internet. There are few authorities, who offer standard SSL along with free trust seal such as RapidSSL, and Comodo.


    Organization Validated SSL aka OV SSL certificates are the special types of certificates, which are dedicatedly designed for medium range businesses, who wants to authenticate their online business and as well as wants to secure their websites data on the Internet. There are some authorities, who offers these types of OV certificates along with free trust seal and daily anti-malware scanners such as Comodo and Symantec.


    Extended Validated SSL also widely known as Green EV SSL certificate, this type of certificates includes additional layers of securities such as Green Address Bar, Dynamic Trust Seal, Mobile Compatibility, Anti-Malware Scanner, Vulnerability Assessment tool and much more. An EV certificates is highly advisable solution to large e-commerce websites, where financial transactions take place on every second.


    A wildcard SSL certificates is the most reasonable and the highly recommended for e-commerce websites, where multiple sub-domains needs an every second. The wildcard certificate encrypts the unlimited sub domains on a fully qualified domain name, who shared the same server. There are some certificate authorities, who provides wildcard certificate with unlimited server license, which makes these SSL different than other type.


    Multi Doman SSL aka SAN SSL certificate is the most affordable option to protect fully qualified domain names with a single certificate. There are some CA’s, who offers up to 99 domains security with a single certificate on the multiple web servers.
