SSL Types
There are three different validation levels and four different types of SSL certificates
There is an SSL certificate that's perfect for every situation. It's all a matter of knowing what you need and finding the right certificate. Fortunately for you, that's our specialty. Before you make the decision to purchase, let's look at the different validation levels and types of SSL certificates.
When we say different types of SSL certificates, we are referring to two distinct categories:
- Validation Level
- Certificate Functionality
SSL Validation Levels
There are three different validation levels associated with SSL certificates. They represent three different degrees of authentication, with simple domain control validation on one end of the spectrum and a thorough business vetting on the other end. Here are the three validation types:
- Domain Validation (DV)
- Organization Validation (OV)
- Extended Validation (EV)
Domain Validation SSL Certificates
Domain Validation SSL or DV SSL represents the base-level for SSL types. These are perfect for websites that just need encryption and nothing more. DV SSL certificates are typically inexpensive and they can be issued within minutes. That's because the validation process is fully automated. Just prove you own your domain and the DV SSL certificate is yours.

Organization Validation SSL Certificates
Organization Validation SSL or OV SSL represents the middle ground for SSL certificate types. To obtains OV SSL, your company or organization must undergo light business vetting. This can take up to three business days because someone has to verify your business information. OV SSL displays the same visual indicators as DV SSL, but provides a way for your customers to check your verified business information in the certificate details section.

Extended Validation SSL Certificates
Extended Validation SSL or EV SSL requires extensive business vetting by Comodo. This may sound like a lot, but it's really not if your business has publicly available records. EV SSL provides additional details about your business in the certificate details window.

Different Types of SSL Certificate Functionality
There are four different types of SSL certificates when it comes to functionality:
- Single Domain
- Multi-Domain
- Wildcard
- Multi-Domain Wildcard
Single Domain SSL Certificates
As the name suggests, a single domain SSL certificate can only be used on a single domain or IP. This is considered the default SSL certificate type. The DV SSL type is available at all validation levels.
