What are the different types of SSL certificates available?

VeriSign offers a variety of SSL certificates, each designed to meet specific security needs and requirements for websites. The three primary types of SSL certificates are Domain Validation, Organization Validation, and Extended Validation. Domain Validation SSL certificates are the most basic level of security, providing a quick and simple verification process. This type of certificate confirms ownership of the domain but does not validate the identity of the organization behind it. It is suitable for personal websites and blogs. Organization Validation SSL certificates provide a higher level of assurance. In addition to verifying domain ownership, this type requires the certificate authority to confirm the legitimacy of the organization requesting the certificate. Organizations typically use this level for business websites where user trust is crucial. Extended Validation SSL certificates offer the highest level of trust and are often recognized by browsers through visual indicators such as a green address bar. They require extensive verification, including legal, physical, and operational checks of the organization applying for it. Choosing the right type of SSL certificate depends on the level of security and trust needed for a website.
