OrderBefore generating an SSL certificate, the certificate authority (CA) must check that you own the domain names you want to secure. There are three levels of validation, depending on the type of SSL certificate you want :
DV validation (Domain Validation): DV certificates are the fastest SSL certificates to be generated, usually, the validation is done via email, CNAME (DNS) or HTTP.
OV validation (Organization Validation): OV certificates are reserved to companies. The CA makes a few actions to verify that the company exists and is working (as is it done for a DV validation), examine the legal documents of the company, and make phone calls to check that the business is contactable. This validation may take several days.
Validation EV (Extended Validation): The EV certificate is reserved to companies as well and offers the highest level of validation. The CA makes a verification similar to the one applied for an OV validation, and verifies in addition to that, that the domain name to be secured is registered under the company name. This type of certificate may take several days to be validated. Once an EV certificate is configured, the company name appears on the browser's address bar.
There are certificates that can secure multiple domains and subdomains such as Multi Domain and Wildcard certificates. The advantage of this type of certificate is that you won’t need to manage multiple certificates separately and verify the expiry date of each one of them.
Wildcard certificates can secure a single domain name and subdomains with one certificate (example: genious.net, www.genious.net, mail.genious.net etc.).
Multi domain certificates allow you to secure multiple domain names and subdomains following your need, you just need to choose the number of Additional Domains (SAN) to be added. (Example: genious.net, genious.ma, mail.genious.net etc.)
