Business SSL Certificates

Frequently Asked Questions about Organisation Validation SSL Certificates

• How does a business SSL certificate differ from a domain one?

  A business SSL certificate is intended to verify the identity of a company or organization that wants to prove that a credible company stands behind the domain. Unlike a domain certificate, which only confirms the ownership of the domain by an individual or legal entity, a business certificate provides a higher level of validation.

• Why should I install a business certificate on my website?

  Although a domain certificate is much cheaper than a business one, we recommend companies and organizations to install a business certificate. Due to the increased credibility of the company, the level of trust of visitors also greatly increases, leading to improved business results.

  A business certificate is great for use in online stores as well as on other websites where sensitive data is transferred.

• How is the verification or validation of a company or organization carried out?

  When generating a business SSL certificate, the company must provide all necessary documentation to prove its credibility. You also need an official lawyer's or notary's note for registration. After verification, the certificate is issued, followed by its installation on the selected domain.

  The certificate contains information about the company, which increases the level of trust of visitors. A business certificate is proof that the domain is indeed managed by a credible company.

  The company data must also be entered and edited in the D&B register. This is a paid service, which costs $ 408.99 per company. In agreement between the D&B register and NEOSERV, we can enter and arrange the data instead of you, in this case the service costs only 30 € + VAT.

• So, for what types of websites is a business SSL certificate suitable?

  Although a domain certificate is much cheaper than a business one, we recommend companies and organizations to decide to install a business certificate, as the level of trust of visitors will be much higher due to increased credibility. A business certificate is also great for use in online stores and on other websites that access sensitive visitor data through forms.

• I have set up an online store. Will a domain certificate be enough or should I rather opt for a business one?

  We definitely advise you to decide to purchase a business certificate, which through additional checks and confirmations provides a higher standard of security for using the online store. Your visitors will know that their personal and banking information is safe, as is the safe execution of transactions.

  By clicking on the security lock icon, they will be able to see which organization the SSL certificate was issued to, who is the issuer of the certificate, and how the data being transferred between their browser and the server hosting your online store is encrypted.

• How quickly will the business SSL certificate be activated?

  The activation of a business SSL certificate takes from 2 to 26 days.

• What does it mean that SSL protection is 256-bit?

  256-bit encryption is an encryption technique that uses a 256-bit key for encryption and decryption of data. It consists of 2 to the power of 256 possible combinations, which provides an extremely high level of security.

  Many data and files of financial, military and government institutions are also protected with a 256-bit key.

• * Do you install the certificate on my website or store for free?

  Free certificate installation applies in case you have a shared hosting plan rented with us. In some cases, minor adjustments are needed directly on the website after installation. We can also help with this. Contact us for an effort estimate, and we will check your website and give you a cost estimate.
