Multi-Domain: Secure multiple top-level domains
Multi-Domain SSL certificates allow the protection of several different top-level domains (e.g., www.yourdomain.com, www.mywebsite.com, and shop.theirdomain.com) in just one certificate. With the same encryption strength, they provide a cost-effective alternative to purchasing multiple single-root SSL certificates.
SSL certificate with organization validation (OV)
By requiring additional documents such as a commercial register extract, Thawte ensures that the protected domain truly belongs to the publisher. The information is displayed to the user when clicking the site seal or the https identifier in the browser. Compared to simple domain validation, this type of validation thus provides a trust-building added value.
256-bit SSL encryption
The data exchanged between a client (e.g., web browser) and a server is encrypted before sending and decrypted after receiving. The strength of encryption is measured based on the bit strength. The Thawte SSL certificate here provides the best possible encryption of data transmissions in the form of 256bit.
Thawte Site Seal
The site seal shows visitors with a dynamic time display that the website is transmitted SSL-encrypted. When clicking on the seal, Thawte provides further information on encryption and all details about the domain owner (corporate validation) in a pop-up window. This strengthens the user's sense of security and reduces the number of purchase and transaction cancellations.
Easy online installation and renewal
The installation of the Thawte SSL certificate takes only a few minutes. You can then open a browser and see the closed padlock that indicates your website is now protected by the SSL certificate. Our timely renewal reminders ensure that your websites remain secure without interruption.
