What is CertSimple?<\/h1>\n

CertSimple helps companies prove their websites are authentic.<\/p>\n

We do this using EV HTTPS, which is both a standard for verifying the legal entity controlling a website, and a way of embedding that identity inside a site's HTTPS (SSL) certificate.<\/p>\n

Web browsers display the verified identity<\/a> when the user visits EV HTTPS sites.<\/p>\n

There are many companies who provide HTTPS, but they mainly provide cheap\/free certificates that don't prove identity. CertSimple is the only service entirely focused on identity verification for HTTPS<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false,"raw":""},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
