Secure Site Seal

Sectigo Secure Site SealThThe Sectigo EssentialSSL Certificate Security Seal is a static graphic that can be placed on a website to show visitors that your site is secured with an SSL certificate. This seal is a simple but effective way to increase user confidence by signaling to them that the data transmission between their browser and the server is protected. The static Secure Site Seal is not interactive or dynamic, meaning it does not provide additional information when clicked. However, its presence on a page plays a key role in building the credibility of a site, especially in the eyes of new visitors. When users see the Sectigo seal, they are assured that the site meets basic security standards related to data encryption. Placing this seal on login pages, contact forms, or other key sections of the page can increase user confidence, which can have a positive impact on conversions and engagement on the site.

Domain Validation (DV) SSL Certificate

The validation procedure for the Sectigo EssentialSSL SSL certificate is based on domain verification, known as Domain Validation (DV). This process is intended to confirm that the person or organization requesting the certificate actually controls the domain they want to secure. After applying for the certificate, the user selects one of the available verification methods. Sectigo offers three main ways to confirm domain ownership: verification email, placing a verification file on the domain server, or adding a specific DNS record. In the case of choosing verification by email, a verification email is sent to the registered email address associated with the domain, which contains a link to the confirmation. If the user chooses verification by file, Sectigo generates a unique file that must be placed in a specific location on the server. The third method involves adding a special DNS record to the domain configuration. Once one of these methods is successfully completed, Sectigo automatically checks whether control over the domain has been confirmed. If so, the SSL certificate is issued and ready for installation. The entire verification procedure is quick and simple, usually taking a few minutes, which makes Sectigo EssentialSSL certificates a convenient solution for websites requiring basic security.
