Netcraft’s June Survey of SSL Market Reinforces Leadership of VeriSign Brand Certificates Across the Internet

VeriSign, Inc. (NASDAQ: VRSN), the trusted Internet infrastructure service provider for the networked world, appeared to lead the global SSL marketplace with a 44.4 percent share, according to the latest Netcraft survey of publicly facing SSL Certificates on the Internet.

Presenting the most comprehensive and accurate view of the SSL market ever, the June Netcraft survey found a total of 1,502,281 distinct valid third-party SSL Certificates, out of which 667,429 feature SSL Certificates provided by VeriSign and its brands.

Compared to the 38.1 percent share of VeriSign in May as assigned by VeriSign, the June report of 44.4 percent market share is built up on a more complete accounting of the overall SSL market. There is a rise in VeriSign’s Extended Validation (EV) SSL Certificate market too, and that comes to 72.2 percent of the total 26,387 EV SSL Certificate in use on the Internet.

Tim Callan, Vice President of product marketing at VeriSign, responded, “The Netcraft June 2010 survey offers the most complete snapshot of the SSL market to date, showing not only that VeriSign has maintained its SSL leadership, but that our market share has been higher than previous surveys indicated. As Netcraft has access to more hostnames data, they will be able to report more accurate market share figures, which we believe will continue to be very favorable for VeriSign.

Extended Validation, the next generation of SSL Certificates, was designed to impart greater strength to Ecommerce security and to guard against phishing attacks. With the green color that it turns on at the address bar, your website is visibly more secure and trusted than with other types of certificates. Through it, Ecommerce merchants can increase trust and build long-term revenue with a reduction in shopping cart abandonment.

If you are looking for a feasible online business security solution involving multiple websites, EV Multi Domain SSL Certificates (MDCs) are a good choice. A single EV Multi-Domain SSL Certificate can secure your multiple websites, and yes, the regular EV SSL indicator, i.e. the green address bar, would be displayed to the visitors of all the websites secured with that one cert building their trust and assuring security of the highest levels. What convenience and cost-effectiveness for online businesses!

Use: EV green bar security on all the websites through an MDC represents a breakthrough in the web business arena by bringing a high level of commercial viability. You can specify up to 100 domains in the Subject Alternative Name field of a certificate through an MDC.

Comodo’s EV MDC Certificate costs less than what it costs for a lone EV SSL Certificate of some CAs. Its cost goes like this: $809.10 per year for 3 domains and $99.00 per additional domain year thereafter. With additional features such as SGC capability, dedicated account manager, and free phone priority, this Extended Validation Certificate becomes a complete trust package that’s unparalleled in the industry.

Benefits:

1# Save huge chunk of money per year over the cost of individual EV Certificates

2# On a single certificate, secure up to 100 fully qualified domain names

3# Additional domains can be added at any point during the lifecycle of the certificate costing you just $99.00 per cert per year

4# Easy to deploy using Comodo’s patent-pending EV-AUTO Enhancer technology

5# Simplify SSL management process with just one certificate to manage all your domains and enjoy the convenience
