A Wildcard Certificate conveniently allows you to secure multiple sub domains on one domain on the same server using *.domain.com pattern for the common name.
 
The Thawte Wildcard Certificate offers comprehensive authentication procedures (domain name and identity verification). It also offers 256, 128, 56 or 40-bit encryption depending on your client's browser capability and the cipher suite installed on your web server.
