Can a malicious operator obtain a DV certificate?
A malicious operator may obtain DV if they meet domain-control validation and other issuance requirements. HTTPS alone is not a reliable assessment of a site's trustworthiness.
EGGDJ / SSL CERTIFICATES
SSL certificates: DV OV & EV understand the difference
HTTPS protects data in transit. DV checks domain control, OV also verifies the organisation, and EV applies more extensive identity and authorisation checks. EggDJ can help with selection, installation and renewal. HTTPS alone does not establish a site’s security or a merchant’s trustworthiness.

You control this web address
- IN PLAIN LANGUAGE
- Checks control of the domain Does not check which company is behind it
- HOW TO CHOOSE
- Need HTTPS Check what your hosting provider already includes
- WHAT TO PREPARE
- Have access to domain settings No OV or EV company identity checks
We look after the certificateCheck the platformHelp applyInstall and testPlan renewal
DV is a valid encryption option OV and EV add identity checks They do not inherently strengthen encryption or guarantee a vulnerability-free site or an honest business
We check your host’s existing certificates first Free DV may be suitable Certificate and management fees are itemised upfront Issuance timing depends on the certificate authority
CLEAR ANSWERS
Questions you may have
Does EV mean stronger encryption?
DV, OV and EV chiefly differ in identity validation, not encryption strength. Choose according to identity requirements while maintaining updates and access controls.
