Has anybody found the actual specification for "Extended Validation" certificates? That info should be here. It's not easy to find, and may not be public yet. -- John Nagle 22:07, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
Yes, I would encourage someone with a neutral point of view and a good knowledge of cryptography to aggressively rewrite this article. I read the article hoping to find out what Extended Validation entails on a technical as opposed to a marketing level, and the existing press release text is unhelpful.-- Eb Oesch 22:51, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
policyIdentifiers MUST include the identifier for the CA’s extended validation policy.

Verisign has issued at least one non-compliant Extended Validation certificate.
The certificate, which was issued for Mellon Investor Services, and can be seen on that site, has SUBJECT information as follows:
The "Jurisdiction of Incorporation" and "Registration Number" required by the standards at [2] are NOT present. That seems to be a violation of the standards.
The ISSUER is
Interesting. Already Verisign seems to be breaking the rules. -- John Nagle 18:22, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
I've added a table of the OID values which identify Extended Validation certificates. There's no unified way to identify EV certificates; each vendor has a different OID, silly though that is. There's no published table of this information yet, but each vendor's certification practice statement has their OID. So I've looked up the values for three major vendors and cited them appropriately. Please add to the table. Carefully, please. Find the Certification Practice Statement and cite the page from which the OID came. There's no public list of this information elsewhere, so people will use these numbers. -- John Nagle 07:47, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
The OID presented as "EV policy" is registered at IANA enterprise-numbers. Some sites, www.oid-info.com, provides the owner and the registered OID trees. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.127.6.234 ( talk) 15:29, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
The certificate you get from the URL https://www.verisign.com contains another CPS pointer than the one, which is displayed in the table in this article (see last entry, for VeriSign). Here is, what you find in the certificate: https://www.verisign.com/rpa. The content of that page seems not to be a CSP. But you may find another one at VeriSign's web pages: https://www.verisign.com/repository/CPS/VeriSignCPSv3.5.pdf. However, I tend to believe that sites CPS pointers point to should be secured by SSL/TLS as well. Zettmann 16:44, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
The cite for GlobalSign's OID is vague; it's a link to a page of various GlobalSign links. Unlike all the others, there's no page number. I can't find the OID in those documents.
It's worth keeping this detailed list accurate; as far as I know, there's still no other public collection of where all the OIDs for EV certs are defined. -- John Nagle ( talk) 05:18, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
Someone linked to 'SSL 247' [3] which is a certificate reseller. They divide certificates into three categories.
Most users, and browsers, don't distinguish between DV and OV. Globalsign has a similar classification [4] [5]. StartSSL seems to use the terms "Class 1" and "Class 2" for "DV" and "OV". [6] We make that distinction internally within our SiteTruth system; lacking any standard to follow, we consider a cert with an "L" (location) field to be an OV cert.
Is this accepted nomenclature, or is this just Globalsign and their resellers? Is there a standard way to distinguish a DV cert from an OV cert? -- John Nagle ( talk) 17:40, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
I know Comodo makes that distinction. Katharine908 ( talk) 16:48, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
This technology isn't as great as it may seem. The biggest problem with it is that it only adds another authority figure with the keys and ability to issue the coveted EV approval. It has no significant technological advantage over crypt standards already being used, and it promotes the chain of trust instead of the web of trust. I think its a scam to be honest. In fact, I'm going to apply for my own OID and call it cAShakeMoneyHands, a superior mark only available to the richest webmasters, and it will be way more valuable than the EV bit. The only think I need to do is buy in on the browser idiocy scam, maybe offer some stock under the table. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.13.29.139 ( talk) 96.13.29.139
I have added a new image taken on IE 8 and Firefox 3.5 and edited the description that was "no longer turns yellow to indicate a secure connection" to "turns Green color to indicate a secure connection". Lakshmi VB Narsimhan 09:34, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
I have also added an image an EV Certificate (PayPal's), yet numerous times they have been removed. I have taken the screenshot myself, and I doubt that PayPal care about this image. If someone or a bot removes this I will be editing the name out. Thompson.matthew ( talk) 03:07, 25 December 2009 (UTC)
The section on the study that Tec-Ed conducted on user responses to the EV "green bar" was missing some very significant information about how the study was conducted -- information that reduce the study's reliability to a level that is probably below what would be considered acceptable in an academic context.
Methodological flaws include:
The study in question is titled "Extended Validation and VeriSign Brand" and includes questions that deal exclusively with brand recognition of VeriSign, a major provider of EV SSL services, and is available on the VeriSign web site. Though it is not mentioned in the white paper, it seems obvious that the research was funded by VeriSign. This doesn't invalidate its results by itself, but in combination with the methodological problems mentioned above, the funding source could lead to some suspicions about the objectivity of the research. —Preceding

Restored the certificate identification data section. There was some controversy over listing prices, so I left those out, but the table of OIDs which identify an EV certificate is useful.
The only way to identify an EV certificate is to have a table of the OID values used by each CA. That table is hard to obtain. Wikipedia is one of the very few public places where that data is available. -- John Nagle ( talk) 05:47, 16 February 2011 (UTC)
This page seems to have ongoing relevance and I agree with John that the OIDs are helpful. Not sure if the consensus is that the neutrality issue has been resolved, but the whole article does seem to need a refresh. The business has changed with Symantec now owning VeriSign, Thawte, GeoTrust and RapidSSL. Our organization uses thawte, and checking the reference for the CPS, I found it quite out of date (link is dead, and their current version of the CPS is 3.7.3 (6 versions since 3.3, though some minor). I updated the CA/Browser link, but would have to spend a bit of time updating the whole page. Do people think a refresh would be useful, or are we in the final stages before the predicted "inevitable collapes" and should let this page slowly collapse with it? (I'm not en experienced editor, but I'm willing to take a crack if I can find some spare time.) Wigbold ( talk) 13:32, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
The CA/Browser forum seems to be making some major changes, but they're hard to figure out. First, they now recognize three levels of certificate: "domain-validated", "organizationally validated", and "extended validation". [7] There was some discussion on this talk page previously about some CAs making similar distinctions, but there was no standard. Now, there is, sort of. That's probably worth a mention in the article.
Second, the CA/Browser forum seems to be trying to establish itself as the standards authority for all CA-issued certificates used for web browsing (as opposed to code signing, email, etc.) [8] They have a draft [9] of a standard for issuance of all browser-trusted certs. Previously, the IETF standardized that. More on this later. -- John Nagle ( talk) 19:41, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
The list of valid EV OIDs used by Mozilla/Firefox is actually compiled into the code for Firefox. It can be found here. [10]. Using that data in Wikipedia, though, might be OR, although we can link to it. -- John Nagle ( talk) 17:04, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
In the OID list there is 1 star sign at "DigiNotar*" and 2 star signs at "TrustWave**", but nowhere is a footnote what "*" and "**" means. Also, the "Web browsers" section is shown inside the OID-table (left column) which looks very weird once expanded (using latest IE). Someone else has this issue? -- 217.229.1.88 ( talk) 22:39, 27 June 2012 (UTC)
The following revert http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Extended_Validation_Certificate&diff=499678826&oldid=499670486 with the note "No indication of notability" seems to be ignorant. CERTUM is one of Poland's largest CAs and it is trusted in all major browsers as well as Windows. Therefore it is used as popular AuthentiCode CA and used for many OpenSource projects since they give free certificates to OpenSource developers (e.g. the developers of TurtoiseSVN). I do not see any reason why this article should not contain this OID since it is a valid EV OID by an international trusted CA. So please re-add this edit. -- 79.255.123.170 ( talk) 03:44, 27 July 2012 (UTC)
There have been some changes since 2012. The CA/Browser Forum issued "Baseline Requirements" for all certs, effective July 2012. [11] The new rules now recognize "DV" (Domain Validated), "OV" (Organization Validated), "IV" (Individual person Validated) and "EV" (Extended Validation) certificates. Associated with this are new OIDs for OV certificates, one per CA, which work the same way EV OIDs work. As for EV OIDs, the CA-specific OIDs are in each CA's Certification Practice Statement.
So what do we do to the article? Add a column or two to the big table in this article? Or should this go in CA/Browser Forum, or somewhere else. One consolidated table is more useful than several, spread over multiple articles. Comments? John Nagle ( talk) 18:21, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

think about it. had normal certs still the validation needs and price of an EV then
a) Individuals couldn't get an SSL cert
b) smaller businesses might have a problem with the prices
in short SSL wouldn't be where it is today. Without pure domain Validation, things like StartSSL or Let's Encrypt wouldn't even exist which gives indivuiduals and web communities a very nice way to use HTTPS so their Users' Passwords wont be seen, while keeping a high validation standard that is visible to the users for Banks and similar stuff. and with banks trying to teach their web users to watch for the green bar, phishing via impersonation gets harder.
also since EV certs (unlike normal certs) enforce revocation checks (unlike normal certs because the outage would be too high if they would be enforced and the OCSP/CRL is offline for whatever reason).
Prople might say that EVs are "just a way to get their high prices and lost standards back", but in the end, the lowering of the cert prices and even creating free CAs made ssl popular enough that browsers can be starting to think about to mark plain HTTP sites as insecure.
