Organization Validated (OV) SSL/TLS Certificates
Organization-validated certificates include the Company name in the certificate. Organization Validation (OV) SSL certificates are commonly used for websites that require high security, such as the financial sector, public institutions, and businesses.
OV SSL stands for Organization Validation SSL.
OV SSL certificates also provide strong encryption to secure the communication between the website and the user's browser, ensuring that sensitive information remains protected.
OV SSL certificates are commonly used by businesses, government entities, and organizations that require a higher level of trust and authentication. They offer a balance between affordability and enhanced security compared to EV SSL certificates, making them a popular choice for a wide range of websites.
The validation process for an OV SSL certificate typically involves verifying the organization's official registration documents, checking government databases, and conducting additional checks to ensure the organization's authenticity. This process provides a higher level of assurance compared to DV certificates, which only verify domain ownership.
OV SSL certificates
OV SSL certificates do not display a green address bar like EV SSL certificates, they do offer some visible trust indicators. When users visit a website secured with an OV SSL certificate, they can view details about the organization by clicking on the padlock icon or examining the certificate information in their browser. This allows users to verify that they are interacting with a legitimate and verified organization.
