Validation can be found under the following topics

  • When is SURFnet made a 'Division' available commissioning of the DigiCert service. Such Division is for a single legal entity. In the division by yourself any organization names (such as SURFnet BV) and related domains (such surfnet.nl) imported and thus for endorsement to DigiCert Validation. Wait preferably domains to enter the respective organization has been validated.

  • There are SURFnet customers who participate in SURFcertificaten and who have more than one legal entity. They can at scs-ra@surfnet.nl request a second division.

  • For most customers, SURFnet is validated by one organization sufficient. There are organizations that have very recognizable separate units under one legal entity. This is not meant faculties; Units that are Organisational. A few examples are the institutes of FOM (FOM, Differ, Nikhef and AMOLF) and the Foundation VU-VUmc (VU University and VU University Medical Center). You can try validating more in such cases Organizations by DigiCert. If in doubt, just contact us in advance with scs-ra@surfnet.nl .

  • Another reason for more that an organization wanting within a Division = entity is the existence of more than one common name or abbreviation. That will be accepted by DigiCert Validation as for example at the Chamber of Commerce more of those names have been registered (eg 'Tilburg University' as an alias of 'Tilburg University).

  • You can hang one domain to more than one of your organizations (already in testing there too troublesome bugs discovered).

  • For the users of TCS Comodo service eScience Personal Portal (as Atomic and Molecular Physics, LUMC, Nikhef, Groningen, University of Amsterdam, VU and WUR) enjoy a special reason to look for when choosing the Organization name. It is explained below by David Group. As one of the participants referred to SURFcertificaten still happy with the spelling of their name mentioned below, use it exactly the same. If a different spelling is preferred, then validate that the first, and then add a second Organisation increases with the eScience spelling (in 7-bit ASCII).Give eScience grid certificates only from among the eScience Organisation name.
     

  • The name of an organization's (pre) validated by DigiCert certificates before you can get for it. The name is based on data provided by the administrator. It has Specifically important That the NAME of the organization is EXACTLY the SAME as the particular tat was set in the Comodo service in the Confusa eScience Personal portal (s) --including the same capitalization.

  • Immediately after entering the Organization would you also for the types of certificates you want to be validated: Open the organization and click the 'submit for validation' button. All five (Organization Validated, eScience Grid, Extended Validation, Code Signing, Document Signing) enter at once is most useful, unless you described has entered a special eScience Organisation name above; you give eScience Grid course only to those referred Organisation for eScience.

  • After an Organization validated go there for the SSL certificates and associate Grid domains to. Ask only domain validation for domains that you own is the legal holder. You want to be well known by DigiCert; therefore verify yourself beforehand who the holder, for example in the whois:
  • For most domains you just want Organization Validated (OV) and Grid certificates aavragen. For your main domain, which you present yourself to the world that you will want to use Extended Validation. You want EV certainly not available to obscure units within your organization that is not present on behalf of your organization on the web. You would not let EV use by people who have the legal texts, especially the TCS Terms of Use do not want to read. You want to problems does not get into a fight with American liability parties.

  • Domain validation is currently in principle valid for 36 months; so there is no Domain Control Validation mail per certificate. That's very nice for instance spam filtering SURFcertificaten participants is rather yuck.

  • DigiCert does the one-time validation DCV with a burst mail to (part of) the infamous 7 adressenvan the domain admin, administrator, hostmaster, postmaster, webmaster, whois technical contact and WHOIS administrative contact. There are still opportunities to arrange DCV DNS records.
