What is Web Certificate and how is it useful?

A web certificate is a 128-bit SSL security tool, which enables e-commerce or other secure communications on the Web.
 
What kind of web certificates do we offer ?

We offer two kinds of web-certificates both with 128 bit encryptions.
Comodo Instant SSL
This also offers 128 bit encryption but does not give TRUE SITE IDENTITY ICON.
Geotrust 128 bit SSL with "True site identity"  icon.
This offers not only provides encryption but all also displays your verified company information on by means of a TRUE SITE IDENTITY ICON similar to the one on this website's homepage, at the bottom right hand corner. Useful for corporate sites doing business on a global scale via their website.

As used in SSL secured Internet transactions, a web certificate provides the following:
 
Confirmation of Identity of the SSL owner
A web-certificate is issued to a party (web cert purchaser) after confirming its identity and genuiness as to the address, telephone numbers, existence in business, etc via investigators. Thus it gives the necessary assurance and confidence to your client to do business with you.

Non-interception
The user's (ie your client) information will not be intercepted and interpreted (by some wily eavesdropper) between the user's browser and the server.

The assurances obtained by Web Certificates are a necessity for all e-commerce implementations and any communication in which confidential information is exchanged. Internet browsers can rest assured that their communications are secured by a properly authenticated web certificate as evidenced by the appearance of a little padlock in the frame of their Internet browser at the bottom similar to the one below.

Technically, a web certificate is a statement digitally signed by a Certification Authority (CA) that uses a properly authenticated Private Key/Public Key pair to bind a public key to an identity. This provides independent confirmation of the identity of an entity. More formally, a certificate is a computer-based record which:
 
1) Identifies the Certification Authority issuing it
2) Names, identifies, or otherwise describes an attribute of the subscriber
3) Contains the subscriber's public key
4) Contains the digital signature of the CA issuing it
5) Provides a date range over which the certificate is valid

To obtain a web certificate, a Private Key/Public Key Pair must be generated on the server and then authenticated by a Certificate Authority (CA), which has the requisite recognition in the browser software. For a detailed discussion of the technology behind web certificates see the white papers in the Partner Papers section available on this site.
