/24-7PressRelease/ - SAN FRANCISCO, CA, February 11, 2007 - Created to establish online business identities, enable secure connections and promote online consumer confidence, EV SSLs set a higher standard for secure and successful online businesses. Like Turbo SSL and High Assurance SSLs offered by Bonphire, the new EV SSL offers industry-leading 256-bit encryption technology. A thorough, standardized verification process affords EV SSL owners an opportunity to tout completion of the most stringent vetting process for SSL encryption available today.
The EV SSL vetting process involves verifying the applying organization's identity and typically requires a letter from a representing attorney or accountant. While the new guidelines are strict, Bonphire's EV SSL certificates can be issued within only two to four hours after all required documentation is received.
When users access sites encrypted with EV SSLs using Internet Explorer 7, the first browser to distinguish EV certificates, the site's secure status is immediately evident. The browser's address bar reflects a green background and the name of the organization to which the certificate was issued, along with the familiar https:// prefix and padlock icon. Other browsers, such as FireFox and Opera currently handle EV SSLs like normal certificates and are expected to distinguish them soon.
"EV SSLs will undoubtably increase confidence in your online business. These certificates enable organizations to build a strong and trustworthy online identity, which is crucial to running a successful business. In addition, EV SSLs will curb rampant phishing attacks and other fraud issues customers have had had to deal with frequently when shopping online. The combination of a rigorous, standardized vetting process and new browser versions displaying EV SSL-secured Web sites differently enables Web site visitors to instantly recognize that a Web site can be trusted. As Internet users become familiar with the new browser versions, they will immediately recognize the difference between Web sites that are secured with traditional SSL certificates and those that are covered by the more stringent EV SSL standard." - Martin Rorch, VP of Sales & Marketing
