What Is an EV SSL Certificate?

An Extended Validation (EV) SSL Certificate is a top-tier SSL/TLS certificate that provides the highest level of trust and security for websites. Issued only after a rigorous validation process, it verifies not just domain ownership but also the legal identity and physical existence of the organization behind the website.

Extended validation

When a website uses an EV SSL certificate, visitors receive clear visual indicators, such as the padlock icon in the browser’s address bar, confirming the site’s authenticity and security. This reassures users that their data is encrypted and safeguarded during transactions or interactions.

EV SSL certificates are ideal for e-commerce platforms, financial institutions, and other businesses that prioritize user trust and need to demonstrate their legitimacy. By strengthening online credibility and security, these certificates help foster customer confidence and encourage safe online interactions.


Benefits of Extended Validation Certificates

Unmatched Customer Trust

As awareness of cyber threats grows, EV SSL certificates serve as a powerful trust signal. Their distinct browser indicators assure users of your high-security standards, building confidence in your website.

Affordable Premium Protection

Affordable EV SSL certificates deliver the same cutting-edge encryption and advanced features as higher-priced options. These SSL solutions are tailored to companies of all sizes, ensuring security without breaking the bank.

Advanced Data Encryption

EV SSL certificates adhere to the latest security protocols, offering 256-bit encryption and 2048-bit key protection. These measures effectively safeguard your site from even the most sophisticated cyber threats.

Exceptional Compatibility

EV SSL certificates are supported by 99.3% of web browsers, including older versions. They display company details and secure sensitive data seamlessly across all major servers, platforms, and email clients.

Features That Build Credibility

Dynamic or static site seals included with EV certificates enhance customer trust. These seals, combined with generous warranties against fraudulent issuance, ensure peace of mind for both you and your visitors.

Excellent customer service when I ordered the wrong cert! The support team then helped me get the correct cert and refunded me on the incorrect cert I bought! Very fast and a happy customer.

One of the most reliable SSL brands. If you need to secure subdomains and can afford it, don’t think twice. Get it.

The price seems fair for an EV certificate, especially the two-year deal. Unlike my previous provider, which I won’t advertise here, at SSL Dragon, the buying steps are easier and better explained.

Was assigned to secure several NGO sites. Picked this certificate because of a higher warranty and reasonable price. It’s always a pleasure to work with SSL Dragon.

This is the third SSL Certificate I buy from SSL Dragon, and the first one from GeoTrust. All I can say is the certs work as described in the specs, and the support is very friendly.

The SSL wizard recommended this certificate for our e-stores. We’re already on the third renewal, and during all these years, didn’t have a single issue with it.
