Why Use EV Multi-Domain SSL To Protect Multiple Domains?

sslEV (Extended Validation) Multi-Domain SSL security certificate provides the same level of stringent and tough authentication as the industry standard EV SSL certificate, but by packaging several domains together, it lowers the cost for the buyer. The cost of an EV Multi-Domain SSL certificate covering five domains is less than the cost for five individual security certificates for the same five domains.

Although each domain must go through the domain authentication process separately, it is only mandatory to authenticate the identity of the website owner once. Multi-Domain Extended Validation certificate is the solution where a buyer of certification can save money as well as time.

The SSL industry has many SSL security certificate authorities such as Symantec, GeoTrust, and Thawte, but every authority doesn’€™t offer the same multiple domain packages. Different certification authorities package multiple domains in different ways. For Example, GeoTrust a Global Leader of SSL security, offers five additional multiple domains with its starting package and adds additional domains in increments of five, up to a total of twenty-five, to a buyer. Comodo, on the other hand, offers three additional multiple domains with its starting package of multi-domain SSL to their buyers. The owner can add up to 100 total domains, one at a time. Similarly every Multi-Domain EV SSL certificate packages have their own different price and as well as difficulty of installation.

In addition, Certificate Authorities offer EV Multi-Domain SSL certification with the validity of one or two years. Multiple Domains Extended Validation SSL certificate security also includes the green address and golden padlock on the https line of latest web browsers which contain programming for the Extended Validation SSL certification.

In selecting a Multi-Domain EV SSL certificate (EV MDC), users should consider other major factors such as price, the number of domains needed initially and flexibility in adding new ones during the time period covered by the certificate.  For example, if the website owner has only 5 multiple domain security capacity, but plans to gain up to 10 additional host names in the coming year, then they must determine the package that is most appropriate for their needs. Fortunately, the most trusted certification authorities have their own sales reps available for live chat consultation, and potential buyers can also find reviews of the products online.

A list of key features of Multi-Domain EV SSL certificates for buyers include the following.

  • Security Level: complete business or organization validation.
  • Encryption Level: the toughest 256 bit SSL encryption.
  • Serve License: unlimited server licenses (without any extra charges).
