What is Extended Validation SSL?
Extended Validation SSL Certificates give high-security Web browsers information to clearly identify a Web site’s organizational identity (no more hiding behind a private/proxy WHOIS record). All the major browsers support EV SSLs.

These EV SSL Certificates were created in direct response to the rise in Internet fraud, eroding consumer confidence in online transactions. These certificates require a much more thorough “vetting process” before an EV-SSL can be issued. Don’t expect to order the EV SSL Cert today and download it today. This process can often take many weeks and typically a “temporary EV-SSL” is issued until the complete application process is completed.

They are becoming more and more popular and CoreCommerce is installing more and more of our customers. The top SSL Cert providers Verisign, digiCERT & Comodo can provide the EV SSL Certs to give your customers more confidence!

So, perhaps you’ve come across these green address bars during the day and thought, “How do they do that?”, now you know!

What do EV SSLs look like in Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, and Safari?

Details and the FAQ about Extended Validation SSLs can be found here. You can order these EV SSL directly from the companies mentioned above and order the CC installation from inside your admin > my account > services > secure certificate.
