EV SSL certificates from Tuthost

Best price guaranteeIn the world of SSL/TLS, EV certificates are the gold standard or we can also call it the “green” standard, because of the green address bar that such certificates give. These certificates not only provide encryption for the site, but also come with additional options that help increase confidence in your business. One such option is the green address bar.

Not everyone can get an EV certificate that provides a green line because the Certification Authorities (CA) first perform a full check of the legality of your business. Therefore, if you have a legal, registered business and you are looking for an option to maximize trust and conversion on your website – then an EV certificate – is the best option to solve your problems.

How to get an SSL EV certificate?

Frequent questions about EV SSL certificates

To process an order to issue an SSL certificate, the Certification Authority must verify that the site really belongs to you. To do this, you just need to be able to validate your domain by performing the actions that can only be done by the owner of the domain or a person authorized by him.

Three ways to validate a domain:

  • The fastest and easiest way is to follow a link that the certification authority sends to one of the administrative addresses in your domain. Administrative addresses are addresses that begin with: postmaster@, hostmaster@, administrator@, admin@ or webmaster@ in your domain.
  • Create a CNAME record for your domain that contains a unique code.
  • Place a verification text file with the code on your site. The file is posted through a link that is not visible to site visitors. This method is not suitable for Wildcard and SAN certificates.

You should also provide the certification center with the company’s registration documents.

Provide a DUNS number, if available.

Provide links to third-party authoritative sources that contain up-to-date information about your company: company name in English, address, contact phone number.

Receive a verification call from the certification center staff.

To organize the call, the certification center sends a so-called “call back” letter with a link, which can be used to schedule a call at a convenient time for you or to order a call “for now”; to select the language in which the call will be performed; to leave a comment on the call, for example, you can specify the internal number of the employee responsible for the certificate order. By the way, you do not need to translate the time of the call order, it is already specified in your time zone.

The call can be automatic – after connection, the robot will dictate a numeric code, which must be entered at the link in the letter to arrange the call.

You can also call one of the employees of the certification center to clarify the details of ordering a certificate.

Due to the fact that modern browsers consider SSL certificates with validity period of several years insecure, certification authorities issue certificates every year, during the paid subscription. Annual certificate replacement reduces the risks associated with the fact that the certificate files may be compromised.

When you renew the certificate order, new certificate files are issued. Therefore, after renewal, you must replace the old certificate file with a new one. Also, when renewing the certificate, you must go through the validation process again as the first time.
