ExtendedSSL

Extended validation SSL certificate with true 128 bit encryption, and free SGC.

The GlobalSign EV SSL certificate activates the new green address bar and alternates between your company name / country and the issuing authority, GlobalSign. By turning the address bar green and showing the visitor your company name and the identity of the trusted issuing authority, your SSL certificate provides the highest level of trust and assurance, much more that just the standard non-EV padlock.

EV SSL immediately tells your customers that you are secure, trusted and an authentic company.

Activate the EV SSL green address bar in the latest browsers such as IE 7, Firefox 3 and Opera 9.52.

The EV SSL certificate can be ordered with the SANs option (often referred to as Unified Communications Certificates (UCC) or multi domain SSL certificates) to enable you to secure up to 40 FQDNs, subdomains, IP addresses and local hostnames. See below for further information and prices.

The ExtendedSSL boasts the following features (which are available on all GlobalSign SSL certificates by default):

• SSL certificates issued to www will also secure non-www (excluding wildcards)
• All SSL certificates issued with free SGC "step up" encryption technology
• Each certificate is licensed for installation on up to 3 physical servers

What does extended validation mean?

The number of fraudulent websites and phishing attacks increases each year and recently an unprecedented increase in such sites has been discovered. In 2005 the leading Certification Authorities and browser vendors joined together to form the CAB Forum, a membership body designed to standardise the procedures and future issuance of SSL Certificates.

The browser vendors of the CAB Forum have started releasing enhanced versions of their browsers capable of identifying which SSL certificates are the new "Extended Validation" (EV) certificates. These latest browsers activate the new green bar to show visitors when they encounter an Extended Validation certificate, displaying the company name behind the website and the identity of the trusted issuing authority. This provides peace of mind to every visitor and generates the highest level of trust, showing the website is authentic and legitimate.

What benefits do EV SSL certificates offer my company?

Extended validation certificates will provide:

• additional protection to your customers from phishing attacks. Any website can be spoofed, the green bar will prove your website's authenticity and legitimacy.
• protection for your brand from copy cat websites. Ensure your customers know if they stumble across a similar website created by your competitors.
• improved status of your company image. Position your company alongside the big brands, thousands of which have already adopted EV SSL.

The GlobalSign SSL siteseal

The GlobalSign siteseal is a sign of trust on the internet. It shows your customers you have been authenticated and you use the strongest SSL encryption possible to secure your transactions. Displaying the GlobalSign siteseal will help visitors trust your website, and help to convert general visitors into paying customers. If your visitors do not trust your website, you risk abandoned shopping carts, display the GlobalSign siteseal to give them the confidence to complete the transaction.

The siteseal above is a genuine working siteseal (we have a GlobalSign EV SSL certificate installed), feel free to click it!

Add the SUBJECT ALTERNATIVE NAMES option

Subject Alternative Names, a single SSL certificate to secure multiple FQDNs, subdomains or IP addresses

Typically, a standard SSL certificate is issued to a single FQDN, such as www.example.com. A GlobalSign SANs SSL certificate allows you to add up to 40 FQDNs, subdomains, public IP addresses, internal IP addresses and local hostnames to be secured using the same single certificate. This provides complete flexibility and allows you to build a SSL certificate that is simple to use, simple to install and more secure than a wildcard SSL. Each SANs certificate is built to your exact server security requirements.

SANs SSL certificates are often referred to as Unified Communications Certificates (UCC) or multi domain SSL certificates.

Adding the SANs option to the ExtendedSSL is free of charge, you only pay the standard ExtendedSSL price plus the option price for each option you use.

Below is a pricing table for additional SANs options for the ExtendedSSL.

Remember, you can add up to 40 additional subdomains to this certificate, and you pay the price below for each subdomain you add.
