EV SSL Certificate

An EV SSL is an Extended Validation certificate.

EV certificates offer secure connections, verify the business' identity, and help prevent fraud through a thorough set of checks and validations.

These certificates are designed to provide a higher standard of assurance for visitors to authenticate the business behind the domain. The green HTTPS address bar is exclusive to EV SSL certificates and reassures website visitors that they are interacting with a verified business on a secured domain.

Before an EV SSL Certificate is issued, we must performs a rigorous validation to ensure that the green https address bar is only associated with the most trusted organizations.
