Domain Validation (DV): This level is suitable for websites like blogs, personal sites, or Facebook apps. It’s quick to activate, typically taking 15 minutes or less. DV certificates do not require extensive paperwork, but they don’t verify detailed site owner information. As a result, they are not recommended for e-commerce sites or those with user logins.

Organization Validation (OV): OV certificates are ideal for websites that handle customer information and require user login credentials. Certificate Authorities verify the site owner’s organization, and this information is displayed in the SSL certificate details. OV certificates involve some paperwork to establish the organization’s legitimacy.

Extended Validation (EV): EV certificates are recommended for websites dealing with highly sensitive customer data, such as credit card information. The Certificate Authority conducts a thorough vetting process of the site owner’s organization. EV certificates provide the highest level of trust and prominently display company information within the SSL details. They require more extensive paperwork to establish trustworthiness.
