Domain Validated

This SSL certificate can be yours in just minutes. Simply prove ownership over your registered domain to Sectigo and you’re on your way! Proof of ownership can be established in a couple of ways. It takes just a few minutes—quick and easy.

Secures All Subdomains

The Essential SSL Wildcard certificate doesn’t just secure your main domain. It secures all your subdomains, too. Simply use an asterisk at the subdomains level in the common name you wish to secure during the CSR generation process and the Essential SSL Wildcard will do the rest.

Sectigo Trust Site Seal

The Sectigo Trust Seal is among the most trusted indicators on the internet. It is synonymous with safety. This product comes with a dynamic, clickable site seal. Independent research has proven that trust seals like Sectigo’s increase consumer trust and boost conversion rates.

Remove “Not Secure” Warning

All major web browsers – like Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox – flag websites served over HTTP as insecure with the “Not Secure” address bar warning. The Essential SSL Wildcard certificate allows you to serve your entire website via HTTPS, eliminating security warnings.

Assurance & Authentication

The Essential SSL Wildcard offers essential security for your domain and all of its accompanying sub-domains. And for many small to mid-sized businesses, that’s all that’s needed – the basic essentials of encryption. But if you’re looking business-level authentication – or to put it another way, if you’re looking to build trust – then the Essential SSL line may not be your best option. If offering customers greater assurance is a consideration, we recommend investing in the InstantSSL line or even Sectigo’s flagship line of products.
