What is the difference between EV and Standard SSL?

On the surface it may seem that a Standard SSL will provide sufficient encryption and website protection. However, registering for a standard SSL can be done without much confirmation.

With an EV SSL, the Certificate Authority undergoes a far more thorough validation process. It is verifying information like phone numbers, company details and licensing. While this may sound like a drag, this added trust is crucial for sensitive industries like finance, healthcare and e-commerce.

A standard SSL can be issued in minutes, which means that less trustworthy websites can also be mistakenly issued a certificate. Though the increased price and verification process may sound like a hassle, your customers will be happy you made the effort. Moreover, sites with proper verification can rank higher on SEO metrics to help boost web traffic.
