troubleshooting Question
do we need EV SSL certificates any more?
asked on
Given the turf wars between Firefox and Google over how they handle and display "secure" web sites, are EV SSL Certificates of any value any more?
To the general public user that is; I know the CAs think they are of value!
The green bar of IE was nice in its day but that has long gone. A LetsEncrypt certificate site looks pretty much the same as an EV certificate site now to all intents and purposes. I mean, how many users are actually checking this - real world users that is, not us.
And are there any policies enforcable by anything that would prevent accessing a NON-EV certificated site?
