What Is EV SSL?

Extended Validation SSL certificates main aim is to provide and help establish the legitimacy of a business that is operating online with a website. Many people will not shop and use their credit cards with a company website unless it can prove to be a legitimate business of good standing.

An EV SSL will provide details such as the name of the owner of the business and the address of the owner and business that has a website. It also provides the true identity and authority of the personnel buying the EV SSL for their chosen website.

There are literally millions of websites on the internet today and while the majority of them are bona fide real businesses that look after their customers and offer a service or product there are some people who put up websites with one purpose in mind and that is to commit fraud. They put up a website that looks to be just like any other normal website selling goods and services online.

It is hard to tell the difference between a legitimate website and a website that has purely been created with the purpose of conning customers out of their money. These websites will just take the money from your bank accounts or credit cards and you will get nothing in return and even worse in some cases your financial details will be used fraudulently elsewhere.

If you see a website displaying the EV SSL logo on their site you can be sure that every attempt has been made to verify the legitimacy of the company and that you are safe to purchase from the site. An EV SSL will also provide encrypted information whenever a customer uses the website and purchases with a credit or debit card.

The safety of their customers and customers financial details are taken very seriously by companies today, they realise that if they cannot offer their customers the reassurance that their financial details are safe in their hands and that they will deliver the goods or services as promised they will rapidly lose customers.
