Your questions. Answered.
SSL uses a combination of public and private key to secure data exchanged between a Web browser and a Web server.
The public key is used to encrypt the data, and the private key to decrypt it.
What is the difference between free SSL and a paid SSL certificate?
WP Provider offers free Basic SSL, as well as paid SSL certificates.
For all our SSL certificates we use the highest encryption, so it is the same.
So what is the difference between free Basic SSL and paid SSL certificates?
Encryption and validation
It is important to first mention the two major functions of SSL to clarify the differences.
Encryption ensures that visitors to your website can communicate through a secure, encrypted HTTPS connection.
Validation ensures that someone can assume that the person they are communicating with is really who they say they are.
And therefore not just anyone, pretending to be that person or party.
Different types of certificates
Basic SSL, based on Let’s Encrypt, provides encryption.
The certificate is not associated with any name or organization.
Other than the domain name, there is no further validation.
Thus, verification that someone or an organization is who they say they are is minimal.
This is why paid certificates that offer more validation are still in demand.
With Domain SSL, there is validation only at the domain level.
It verifies that you have control over the domain you claim to own.
This is checked by the Certificate Authority (CA) and is basically the same as what Let’s Encrypt does.
Starting with Organization SSL, it actually looks at company data.
The CA verifies that the organization is who it says it is.
To do this, the organization’s Chamber of Commerce records are checked.
It also checks in the Whois to see if the domain is registered in the name of the organization.
What happens with Organization SSL in terms of validation also happens with Extended SSL.
However, this goes a step further.
Even more company information is checked and the CA will also contact you.
With this certificate, once issued, you will see the company name in the address bar.
If you have a sole proprietorship, some browsers will additionally display the owner’s name.
In short, validation with a paid organization SSL certificate is more stringent than with free certificates.
There are three main types of SSL certificates: Domain Validated (DV), Organization Validated (OV), and Extended Validation (EV).
Domain validated certificates are the simplest and are usually used for personal Web sites or small businesses.
Organization Validated certificates are used by larger businesses and require more information to be provided in order to be issued.
Extended Validation certificates are the most stringent and require the most information to be provided, but they offer the highest level of security.
SSL certificates typically cost between 10 and 240 per year.
The price depends on the type of certificate, its validity period and the level of security it provides.
If your Web site uses SSL, you will see a padlock icon in the address bar of your Web browser.
You can also check if an SSL certificate is present by looking at the https:// in the URL.
We renew SSL certificates in a timely manner so that there is no interruption.
WP Provider is a web hosting company that offers different types of SSL certificates for securing websites.
There are different types of SSL certificates, depending on the level of security and authentication required for a Web site.
Some of the SSL certificates offered by WP Provider are:
Domain Validation (DV) SSL certificates: these certificates verify only the domain for which they were issued.
They are suitable for low-risk websites, such as blogs and personal websites.
Organization Validation (OV) SSL certificates: these certificates verify not only the domain, but also the organization behind the website.
They are suitable for corporate websites and other websites with a professional profile.
Extended Validation (EV) SSL certificates: these certificates offer the highest level of security and authentication.
They verify not only the domain and organization, but also the legal personality of the organization.
EV SSL certificates are suitable for high-risk websites, such as banks and online stores.
In addition, WP Provider also offers Wildcard SSL certificates, which provide security for all subdomains of a domain.
This is useful for websites with multiple subdomains that need to be secured.
It is advisable to choose the right SSL certificate that suits the needs of your website and the level of security and authentication required.
If you are unsure which certificate is best for your website, please contact WP Provider for advice.
All websites hosted with us require an SSL certificate.
We check for this ourselves and have also enforced the security headers that using no certificate is not possible.If your website does not use SSL, it is possible that someone could intercept the data exchanged between your website and a user’s web browser.
This would allow them to view or modify the data, which could lead to identity theft or other security risks.
