EXTENDED VALIDATION
What is an SSL Certificate?
An SSL certificate acts as third-party verification for a website’s security. It verifies the strength of the Secure Socket Layer encryption used when a user connects to the site and connects that encryption to the organization or individual that owns and maintains the website. SSL certification and validation are a necessary piece of web security for any business that collects information from its users.
Different SSL certificates provide different levels of security, depending on the level of protection and security features your website and its users need. You may be familiar with visual elements such as Site Seals, the HTTPS:// protocol appearing in the URL, and the green bar, but there are less-visible functions that help protect your website and visitors.
No matter what level of security you choose, your users will recognize that your site is safe, and that leads to greater trust in your brand online.
Extended Validation (EV)
Recommended for sites requiring encryption for more sensitive customer information, such as credit cards. Site owner information is more thoroughly vetted by the Certificate Authority.

What comes with an SSL certificate?
Every SSL certificate issued by GreenGrass comes with these great features.
SSL Site Seal
The
site seal offers visual proof of the security provided by your
website’s SSL certificate. It’s so important, in fact, that it’s become
the main reason many website owners and managers buy an SSL certificate
as most web users know to look for it. Seals vary in appearance
depending on the type of SSL certificate issued, but they all mean the
same thing: your user’s data is protected.

Browser Ubiquity

recognize GreenGrass SSL verification, keeping the browsing experience
hassle-free. Your users will never wonder if the company issuing the
certificate is real or whether protection is guaranteed.
Encryption Level
The
level of security provided by an SSL certificate is determined by the
number of bits used to generate the encryption key. That key is then
used to encrypt the data. Most of our SSL certificates use either
256-bit or 128-bit encryption, depending on the capabilities of web
browser and server. Both 256- and 128-bit are industry standard for data
protection.
