Certificates
E-commerce secured by SSL in minutes...
With GeoTrust QuickSSL web server certificates, you can start
conducting secure online transactions with confidence, quickly and cost
effectively. By activating the browser's "LOCK" icon, QuickSSL enables
up to 256-bit encryption and assures online visitors that confidential
information and transactions cannot be viewed, intercepted or altered.
And because our authentication system is the most advanced in the
industry, your customers and trading partners can be sure that GeoTrust
certificates are only issued to fully authorized recipients.
SSL Certificates Delivered Fast and Cost-Effectively
Unlike other SSL products, you don't have to wait days to get your
certificates and we will issue your QuickSSL certificate in about
10 minutes with GeoTrust's fully automated authentication and issuance
process. This process verifies that a certificate purchaser has
appropriate administrative rights to a web server's domain. This
greatly lowers our costs for issuing QuickSSL certificates, and we pass
those savings on to you.
QuickSSL Certificate Features and Benefits Include:
- Fully owned roots. GeoTrust owns all of its roots, and as a result, all of our
certificates offer the highest level of stability. Unlike other
companies which issue certificates off chained roots or license roots
from third parties, GeoTrust is able to offer customers an assurance of
root stability throughout the lifetime of every certificate.
- 99%+ browser ubiquity. QuickSSL certificates are issued off of one of the world?s most trusted
roots. They deliver ubiquitous recognition with leading servers and
99%+ web browser recognition.
- Unlimited, free self-service reissues. GeoTrust provides a quick and easy way to reissue any lost certificate
at no charge. Certificates may need to be reissued when upgrading or
changing server software or operating platform; if migrating your site
from one server to another, or If an existing private key has been
lost, destroyed or otherwise inadvertently overwritten. After
re-validating certificate information online, the new certificate is
issued immediately and is valid from the date of reissue until the
original expiration date.
- Competitive trade-in program. GeoTrust provides a simple way to upgrade from another vendor?s
certificates or transition multiple certificates from disparate
certificate vendors. The competitive trade-in program allows you to
retain the full value of existing certificate investments, by adding
the remaining validity period of any active vendor certificates to your
new GeoTrust certificates ? up to 12 additional free months depending
on when your current certificate expires.
- Multi-year certificates. QuickSSL are available in multi-year validity periods at significant
cost savings. Plus, you avoid the process of renewing certificates
every year.
- Automatic renewal reminders and early renewal options. With QuickSSL, administrators are automatically notified when their
certificates are close to expiration, so certificates are always valid.
GeoTrust also allows administrators to renew certificates up to 90 days
early and receive up to three months credit on new certificates.
- Customer support options. QuickSSL offers optional support services for those customers that need
assistance installing and maintaining their certificates.
Highest Standards for Certificate Practices and Physical Security
As
the world?s second largest Certificate Authority, GeoTrust provides the
highest assurance of trust to all its customers. GeoTrust maintains
compliance with WebTrust, a comprehensive third-party auditing process
which signifies that GeoTrust meets the highest standards for issuing
and managing digital certificates. GeoTrust also leverages the best
possible physical infrastructure and network security to maintain
customer accounts and certificate data. Our state of the art hosting
facilities are fully redundant and hardened data and network operations
centers that meet stringent WebTrust standards for physical and network
access control. Independent security auditors also carefully scrutinize
