Https certificate can be divided into three types: dv https certificate, ov https certificate and ev https certificate. Among them, the cheapest is dv https certificate, followed by ov https certificate, and the highest price is ev https certificate. This is also because the ev https certificate is audited in accordance with international standards, the higher the audit standard of the https certificate, the higher the security of the certificate, the higher the natural price.

Although the price of dv https certificate is low, it is suitable for personal sites, corporate sites need to apply for ov https certificates, if the site security requirements are high, you need to apply for ev https certificates, do not blindly apply for certificates.

How do I choose a SSL certificate?

The first kind: EV SSL certificate-enhanced SSL certificate

Suitable for financial securities, banks, third-party payment, online shopping malls, etc., with emphasis on website security and brand trusted image, involving transaction payment, customer privacy information and account password transmission, it is recommended to choose the EV SSL certificate showing the green address bar, which is more worthy of users' trust.

The second kind: OV SSL certificate-enterprise SSL certificate

It is suitable for enterprise official websites, business websites, securities, financial institutions, etc. The identity of the company and the ownership of the domain name of the website are examined by the certification authority to prove that the applicant is a legitimate and real entity. Users can see the name of the company applying for the SSL certificate in the certificate. Generally, OV certificates are issued within 1 to 5 working days.

Third: self-signed SSL certificates-certificates issued by individuals or institutions themselves

It belongs to the SSL certificate issued by the self-built PKI system, rather than deploying the SSL certificate that supports the browser. It is not recommended to use the SSL certificate. It is not only easy to be imitated by phishing websites, but also has no accessible revocation list, let alone trusted by the browser. Many small enterprises choose to sign their own SSL certificate for reasons such as no cost, validity period and so on. In fact, the loss outweighs the gain. It is not recommended that any organization or individual choose a self-signed SSL certificate.

If the company has a sufficient budget and relatively high encryption requirements for the website, and wants to provide a credible image of the company brand, the company can choose the highest level of EV SSL certificate; if the enterprise identity authentication is required, and the user can view the digital certificate of the enterprise name, choose the OV SSL certificate. If it is a small and medium-sized enterprise or personal website that is underfunded, it is recommended to use the DV SSL certificate. It is not recommended for any enterprise or personal website to use the so-called self-signed SSL certificate, because it is untrustworthy and dangerous; it is recommended that you compare and consult more before purchasing according to the brand and service of the certificate, and choose a certificate that is more suitable for the website as far as the conditions permit.
