Feature 1: The most stringent audit.

The EVSSL certificate is currently the most stringent type of certificate, and the CA organization not only needs to conduct a strict review of the domain name ownership and enterprise identity, but also adds a third-party strict identity audit to ensure the authenticity of the certificate holding organization. The so-called third-party identity verification refers to the need for an authoritative third party to guarantee the application of EV by domestic enterprises

SSL certificates are usually issued using valid methods such as Dun & Bradstreet numbers (DUNS) and lawyer's letters.

**Once the EV SSL certificate is installed, a prominent green address bar will appear. The green address bar displays not only https and green security locks, but also the name of the enterprise, which is more secure and trustworthy.

Security: The address bar starts with "https" and the green security lock indicates that an SSL secure encrypted channel has been established between the browser and the server, and users will not be viewed, stolen and modified when accessing and entering private information.

Trusted: The name of the company or organization will be displayed in the green address bar, telling visitors that the ** is trustworthy and can safely access and enter private information, etc. In this way, visitors can quickly identify the real and phishing, and establish a credible image of the enterprise.

Hello! Extended Validation SSL Certificate, abbreviated as: EV SSL Certificate, means:

SSL certificates issued in accordance with the world's strictest authentication standards. EV SSL certificate is a new generation of standard SSL certificate, which is intended to solve the problem that the authentication standards used by various digital certificate authorities to issue SSL certificates are not uniform, and at the same time, users can easily distinguish the existing SSL certificate and EV SSL certificate, that is, when the user uses a browser above IE7 to access the ** deployed EV SSL certificate, the address bar will turn green, not only showing the security lock, but also the name of the organization and the name of the certificate authority. When accessing other types of existing SSL certificates, only the badge is still displayed.

Because many online crimes are caused by impersonation of identities, the EV SSL certificate requires applicants to undergo a very strict identity verification to combat these impersonation crimes. The EV SSL standard, developed by the CA Browser Forum, is a globally harmonized standard that requires all Certificate Authorities to strictly adhere to this standard for the issuance of EV SSL certificates. In addition to verifying the ownership of the domain name, the verification process also includes verifying whether the contact person is authorized by the applicant to apply for the certificate, verifying whether the applicant is a legally registered unit, whether the business license has been reviewed annually, and also verifying whether the applicant has a legal office space, etc.

Fraud and phishing are rampant Today, many times users are unable to discern the authenticity and fall for scams. When entering sensitive confidential information (such as username, password, bank card information, etc.), users need to be sure that the ** is credible, whether it is the claimed organization**, and whether their confidential information is transmitted encrypted. If this cannot be clearly confirmed, the user will abandon the use of the service.

The EV SSL certificate is displayed in a green address bar to clearly tell the user that the identity of the ** has been rigorously verified, and the SSL certificate is deployed to encrypt confidential information, thereby enhancing the user's information. This will increase user confidence. The EV SSL certificate was created to combat the growing crime of online fraud and to restore and increase confidence in online transactions.

SSL certificates are divided into three levels: DV, OV, and EV, and the Extended Validation (EV) certificate is currently the highest trust level SSL certificate. It is the most trustworthy SSL certificate to review the corporate identity and domain name ownership in accordance with international norms to ensure the authenticity and reliability of the identity.

Not only does an EV certificate provide you with strong SSL encryption, vulnerability assessment services, and malware scanning, but it can also help defend your site against attacks, while features such as the EV certificate's unique green address bar and organization name can enhance your trusted image.
