If you are enrolling as a small business/sole proprietor, please enter the certificate
requester's name in the "Organization" field, and the DBA (doing business as) name in
the "Organizational Unit" field.
Organizational Unit: Use this field to differentiate between divisions within an
organization. For example, "Engineering" or "Human Resources." If applicable, you can
enter the DBA (doing business as) name in this field.
Common name: The name entered in the "CN" (common name) field of the CSR MUST be the
fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) for the website you will be using the certificate for
(e.g., "www.domainnamegoeshere"). Do not include the "http://" or "https://" prefixes in
your common name. Do NOT enter your personal name in this field.
If you are requesting a wildcard certificate, add an asterisk (*) on the left side of
the common name (e.g., "*.domainnamegoeshere.com"). This will secure all subdomains of
the common name.
NOTE: If you enter "www.domainnamegoeshere.com" as the common name in your certificate
signing request, the certificate will secure both "www.domainnamegoeshere.com" and
"domainnamegoeshere.com."
