What are the types of server certificates?

Server certificate plays a more and more important role in our daily Internet information and data transmission, and the prefix HTTPS on the URL is guaranteed by the server certificate. Its existence makes our usual exchange of information on the Internet more secure, and it also establishes a credible image for many web sites now. Do all HTTPS URLs use the same server certificate? What are the types of server certificates?

Server certificate types can be divided into three categories according to security level:

1. Domain name certificate: this type of certificate is also referred to as DV SSL. Its advantage is that the verification process is simple and only requires relevant organizations to verify the ownership of the domain name. However, as a result, it also has the lowest level of security, which is generally used on personal websites or websites of small businesses.

2. Enterprise certificate: this type of certificate is called OV SSL for short. It is different from domain name certificate. Its application requires verifying the ownership of domain name and submitting paper documents to verify company information. Therefore, it has a higher security level than domain name certificate and is generally used on the websites of enterprises or financial institutions.

3, enhanced certificate: this type of certificate is referred to as EV SSL, which is similar to the enterprise certificate, and the verification documents are all the same. the difference is that when applying for the certificate, the verification process is extremely tedious and complicated, and it takes the longest time, but in exchange for the highest level of security, this kind of certificate is generally deployed in the sites of large enterprises or government agencies.
