Validation Process of Thawte SSL
First step to registration for a SSL Certificate -
Creating a CSR (Certificate Signing Request) is the first step towards setting up SSL on your server or SSL enabled device.
The .csr file you create will be sent to us during the online order process, and used to create your SSL certificate file.
Domain Validation is just a single step -
(1) Most preferred method Email-Based
Authentication - The
CA can send the authentication email to one of five pre-approved
email addresses associated with the website. The five pre-approved addresses
are:
admin@domain.com
administrator@domain.com
webmaster@domain.com
hostmaster@domain.com
postmaster@domain.com
(2) Second alternative authentication method is File-Based Authentication - The CA will provide you with a text file that you will need to upload to the root directory of your website. This will then be verified by the CA via HTTP or HTTPS.
(3) Third alternative authentication
method is CNAME-Based Authentication

(these are MD5 and SHA1). You, in turn, must enter them in your
CNAME DNS record. You must use the following format:
