What Is an OV SSL Certificate?

Organization validation (OV) SSL certificates are a type of SSL/TLS certificate that provide strong encryption and a moderate level of validation by verifying both domain ownership and the legitimacy of the organization behind it.

Organization validation

The validation process involves the Certificate Authority (CA) confirming the organization’s legal existence through checks like verifying business registration documents and physical location. This ensures that the website is operated by a legitimate entity.

Ideal for business websites, e-commerce platforms, and organizations handling sensitive user data, OV certificates offer an additional layer of trust by displaying the organization’s name in the certificate details.


Benefits of OV SSL Certificates

Transaction Security Ensured

Organization Validation (OV) SSL certificates meet essential PCI requirements, ensuring sensitive customer data moves securely between your website server and visitors’ browsers for safe and reliable online transactions.

Affordable Encryption for All

Affordable OV SSL certificates provide the same robust encryption as premium options. Higher-priced certificates include exclusive features, but core security remains consistent, delivering excellent value for all budgets.

Impossible-to-Crack Encryption

Adhering to strict security protocols, OV certificates utilize the advanced SHA-2 algorithm and unbreakable key encryption, offering high-end protection for sensitive information against potential cyber threats.

Large-Scale Compatibility

OV SSL certificates work seamlessly across 99.3% of web browsers and are compatible with major server platforms, including Windows, Linux, Apache, and Nginx, ensuring universal support for your website.

Flexible Options for Businesses

Backed by leading SSL brands, OV certificates suit websites of any size. Available as single domain, wildcard, multi-domain, or code signing options, they adapt to various business needs with ease.

Features That Build Trust

OV SSL certificates include dynamic or static site seals and generous warranties against data breaches or fraudulent issuance. Display these seals prominently to boost visitor confidence and trust.
