There are Benefits to Using a Business SSL/TLS Certificate

Business SSL certificates require the certificate authority (CA) to validate the legitimacy of the business entity applying for the certificate. This validation process involves verifying the organisation's legal existence, physical address, and other business details. As a result, websites with OV SSL certificates often inspire greater trust among visitors compared to DV SSL certificates, which only validate domain ownership.

Visible Organisation Information

OV SSL certificates typically display additional information about the organisation in the certificate details, such as the organisation's name. This gives visitors more assurance about the legitimacy of the website they are visiting.

Higher Level of Security

While DV and OV SSL certificates provide encryption for data transmission, the additional validation steps required for OV certificates offer an extra layer of security. This can be especially important for businesses that handle sensitive information or engage in e-commerce transactions.

Protection Against Phishing

OV SSL certificates help mitigate the risk of phishing attacks by making it more difficult for malicious actors to obtain certificates for fraudulent websites. The validation process for OV certificates helps ensure that the entity applying for the certificate has a legitimate business presence.

Compliance Requirements

In some industries, regulatory compliance mandates using OV or higher-level SSL certificates for handling sensitive data. Organisations can ensure they meet these compliance requirements by using a business SSL certificate.

Who should be using Business SSL?

For website owners aiming to establish their online presence securely and provide comprehensive safety assurances to their users, acquiring an Organization Validation SSL is imperative. This process ensures validation for businesses, educational institutions, organisations, and legal entities, bolstering trust and security online.

Investing in organisation-level security is paramount if your website processes any form of visitor or user information and serves commercial purposes. This involves securing your domain and all associated files, including documents, emails, user data, and sensitive financial information like bank statements.

Standard Features for a Secure Business

Many of the Business Digital Certificates we sell include a list of standard features. In contrast, some may have more features to secure your website or service and provide more authenticity to your business.

High Encryption and Signatures

256-bit encryption is standard in all the SSL Certificates we provide. Still, additional features can come with a number of our Business Certificates. These can include large Private Keys in the Root and Intermediate Certificates and larger signatures in leaf certificates - including 512 and 384. It also allowed the usage of ECC (Elliptical Curve Cryptography) keys for faster and improved security.

Duplication with Multiple Keys

When installing your Certificate on multiple servers and platforms, it is beneficial to use different Private Keys. Doing so will enhance security and create separation between the services in case of a breach. A number of the business Certificates we sell allow you to issue duplicate Certificates using multiple different CSRs and Private Keys.

Enhanced Trust Indicators

Business SSL certificates provide enhanced trust indicators to website visitors. These may include displaying the organisation's name in the SSL Certificate and Site Seal, indicating that a registered and legal entity operates the website. This helps instil confidence in visitors that they are interacting with a legitimate business entity.

Browser and Device Support

In today's dynamic encryption and online security environment, maximizing compatibility is paramount. Our SSL Certificates guarantee seamless connectivity for your visitors across all major browsers and devices, ensuring robust platform security and peace of mind.

Unlimited Server Licences

Installing a digital certificate on a single server is straightforward, but the ability to install it on multiple servers is essential. This enables securing all services with one certificate, saving both time and money.

Higher Warranty Coverage

Business SSL certificates typically offer stronger warranties compared to domain validated SSLs, providing higher financial compensation in case of security breaches, ensuring better protection for businesses and their customers.

Business Validation Process

Before issuance, a Business Validated SSL/TLS Certificate requires thorough organization verification by the Certificate Authority. This meticulous process adds significant value, instilling customer trust by including the details in the Certificates and Site Seals.

Domain Validation

The first step is to validate your domain ownership. This ensures you control the domain name and are authorised to issue certificates.

Organisation Authentication

The Certificate Authority (CA) will verify your organisation is a legitimate legal entity. They will check your country's registration agency for organisations and online listings.

Locality Presence

For this requirement, the Certificate Authority (CA) verifies that your organisation or company has an active presence at its registered address. The easiest thing is to ensure online business directories like DUNS have up-to-date details of your organisation.

Telephone Verification

You need an active telephone listing verifiable by an acceptable online directory to satisfy the Telephone Verification check. The listing must display the same business name and physical address as the information you provided.
