What green Padlocks and Green Bar means?
Basically Padlocks are the Signs of a secure site If you go to an https site, there’s a padlock somewhere, depending on the browser you’re using. You can test this out yourself by visiting an https site. Just type Https:// before your URL address and then you can see something like this - Green Bar There’s also something called extended validation certificates, which some sites will use. In those cases you will actually see a green address bar with a padlock. This is also secured.
Types of SSL
Organization Validation (OV) SSL Certificates : where the certificate authority checks the right of the applicant to use a specific domain name plus it conducts some vetting of the organization. Additional vetted company information is displayed to customers when clicking on the Secure Site Seal, giving enhanced visibility in who is behind the site and associated enhanced trust. Example - Domain Validation (DV) SSL Certificates : where the CA checks the right of the applicant to use a specific domain name. No company identity information is vetted and no information is displayed other than encryption information within the Secure Site Seal. The advantage is that it issued almost immediately and without the need to submit company paperwork. This makes DomainSSL ideal for businesses needing a low cost SSL quickly and without the effort of submitting company documents. Example - Extended Validation (EV) SSL Certificates: where the Certificate Authority (CA) checks the right of the applicant to use a specific domain name plus it conducts a thorough vetting of the organization. EV Certificates activates the browser interface security enhancements, and makes the address bar green bar. For customers who wish to assert the highest levels of authenticity, Extended SSL certificate is the ideal solution. Example -
SSL Certificate Validation Procedures
Validation procedures are strict because we want to protect your business as well as your customers. Our main motto is to verify that each certificate is issued only to those who have proven their identity. Domain Validation The first step in the validation process requires that we verify your control of your domain name. We do this by first querying your publicly available WHOIS information for your domain name. We compare that data to the data on your CSR. If it matches exactly, your certificate passes this validation step and moves on. Just in case, if your CSR does not match your WHOIS data or if your registrar's WHOIS server is unavailable, we will ask for additional measures. Organization Validation The organization validation requires few steps before it gets the green signal and hence it does take some time for the issuance. We may need additional help from you. During the organization validation process, we will try to verify your business in various databases. In case we may contact any verified third party to give a feedback on the existence and validity of your business. In the event that we are unable to find your company information, or if your company information doesn't match the data on your CSR, we will ask you for documentation. We can accept almost any type of third-party verifiable documentation. We can accept the following types of documentation : Articles Of Incorporation (must include State officer seal) Fictitious Name / Doing Business As Document Business Licensing (state/city licensing, right to use tax permit) Bank Statement (must be printed, not from online sources) Merchant Account Statement (must be printed) Utility/Telephone Bills. Extended Validation The extended validation requires few steps before it gets the green signal and hence it does take some time for the issuance. We may need additional help from you.

What is CAA Record?
CAA Resource record is used to specify which certificate authorities (CAs) are allowed to issue certificates for a domain. CAA Resource Records, the new requirement in SSL validation process, allow a Certification Authority to implement additional controls to reduc e the risk of unintended certificate mis-issue. The DNS CAA Resource Record look like this: rvglobalsoft.com. CAA 0 issue "symantec.com" How to add CAA Record?
SSL order status shows 'Failed Security Review'/'Waiting for approval'
You can contact the SSL brand directly for the faster. Just go to your account https://rvglobalsoft.com/clientarea/ -> Services -> SSL, click on the domain that has an issue, and Chat.
What is the Warranty?
The warranty is an insurance that you get when you purchase an SSL certificate. It is an insurance for only end user against loss of money when submitting a payment on a site secured by an SSL certificate, not warranty to the purchaser. If a Certificate Authority fails to properly validate the information contained in a digital certificate, and turn out to be a fraudulent online credit card transaction and a user of your website loses money, in that case the certificate authority will compensate the end user. Please note: Certain certificate authorities may have slightly different of policies on warranties. Rvssl.com is the SSL certificates distributor. Certain certificate authorities may have slightly different of policies on warranties. Which policies on warranties are subject to change without prior notice.
Changing verify call number
The verify call can't change in the backend because SSL brand will use the phone number that you has registered with your company such as DUNS Number or Yellow Pages. If you want to change your verify call number, you need to go to update your company information in DUNS Number or Yellow Pages. You can directly contact the SSL brand for the faster processing. Just go to your account https://rvglobalsoft.com/clientarea/ -> Services -> SSL, click on the domain that has an issue, and Chat.
What is CSR?
CSR is abbreviated from Certificate Signing Request. A CSR is and encoded file to submit to the Certificate Authority (CA) to create your public/private key pair used for encrypting and decrypting secure transactions. Use your Web server software to generate the CSR, you will receive two codes : CSR and Private Key (Private Key should be kept or backed up on the web server to use for the installation). To submit only CSR to Certificate Authority (CA). When you generate a CSR, most server software asks for the following information : Common Name : MUST be the fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) for the website you will be using the certificate for (e.g., www.example.com). Do not include the "http://" or "https://" prefixes in your common name. Do NOT enter your personal name in this field. Organization : The name under which your business is legally registered. The listed organization must be the legal registrant of the domain name in the certificate request. Suggestion!!! MUST match with the Domain Owner on WHOIS.Organizational Unit : Use this field to differentiate between divisions within an organization. For example, IT, Engineering, and so on.City/Locality : Name of the city/locality in which your organization is registered/located. Please spell out the name of the city/locality. Do NOT abbreviate.State/Province : Name of state, province, region, territory where your organization is located. Please enter the full name. Do NOT abbreviate.Country Code : The two-letter country code for the country in which your organization is legally registered. For example US, CN.Key Type : typically RSAKey Length : “2048” bit CSRs are generated in Base-64 encoded PEM format. This format usually contains “-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----" and "-----END CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----" lines at the beginning and end of the CSR. Text editor application can view the CSR. Here is the sample. CSR :-----BEGIN NEW CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----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-----END NEW CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----
