The key to secure Internet communication
SSL certificates guarantee the authenticity of a website identity through a specific validation process executed by a certification authority. They increase the confidence of visitors in the credibility of your website.
The certified SSL encryption assures that information is kept private between your server and the clients' browsers. SSL certificates demonstrate that you have incorporated high security standards in the Internet communication.
Which certificate suits you best depends on the intended use and how sensitive the data is, that needs to be encrypted. We provide different certificates signed by world leading certification authorities in four categories:
Certificates by Security
Good and Favorable
These SSL certificates are low-priced entry-level certificates. The issuance is relatively quick and easy. They are recommended if high-levels of authentication are not a priority to you. Instead, they are specialized on the encryption of basic transactions.
These certificates are particularly suitable for the encryption of transactions for intranets, mail servers, and other web-based applications that are not so much at risk for phishing or fraud.
