Is there any possible way to create a self-signed EV SSL certificate? I know self-signed ssl certificates mean no actual protection, but i dont need this for transferring secure information, just need it for something else So any way you guys know?
Self-signed certificate doesn't mean that this server is actually this server - can not trust such identification automatically using trust certificates for accidental visitors. But cryptographic security is fully functional. And you can tell permanent visitor to add the certificate with the specified fingerprint to the trusted ones. Then SSL will be fully functional for this user - both for site identification and data encryption
Theres no such thing as a self-signed EV certificate. EV was really created so the SSL sellers could get more money from people.
I know EV is just something fancy, working is the same.... since we can create self signed SSL certificates, why cant we add EV to them? PS: How do SSL certs actually work? If i use server a for an ssl certificate host and use on domain.com hosted on server b, that makes my certificate a valid really working certificate?
