Extended Validation (EV) SSL Certificates:

EV SSL certificates calls for extensive checks, in the form of documentation, as to the legitimacy of the organisation and person requesting the same before they can be issued. Organisations issued with EV certification have their names highlighted in green on the address bar of search engines.

Multi-Domain (SAN/UC) SSL Certification:

SAN:

Subject Alternative Name; UC: Unified Communications

Use of Multi-Domain (SAN/UC) SSL Certification allows one to register a host of domains and sub-domains in a single certificate. However, unlike Wildcard, it allows one to transcend different entities for example- .org for organisations; .co.ke for Kenyan companies when creating the sub-domains (e.g. https://sales.yourdomain.co.ke and https://sales.yourdomain.org ). This type of SSL certification is popular with Microsoft Exchange Server 2007. This translates into savings for your organisation as you do not need to purchase additional certificates for multiple IP addresses.

Instant Issuance SSL Certificates:

These SSL certificates can be issued within 10 minutes. One simply confirms domain ownership through a validation email.

Fully Validated SSL Certificates:

These are ideal for organisations. AS such, they serve to assure potential clients and partners that indeed an organisation actually exists on the ground and is legitimate. As such, they require documentation of their existence and registration by the relevant authority.

Wildcard:

Wildcard SSL certification enables one secure all the sub-domains of a given domain within a single SSL certificate. As such Wildcard SSL certification is ideal for users who may require additional sub-domains essential to running their organisations. Examples include having a dedicated sales sub-domain for an organisation specialising in publishing.
