Small Business, Trust and SSL

Over half of Internet users avoid buying online because they’re afraid their financial information might be stolen.* To grow your business, you need more than a Web site, you need a safer online experience.
VeriSign® SSL Certificates protect your Web site and help assure your customers that your site is safe from search to browse to buy.

Easy to Secure: Vulnerability Assessment and Malware Scanning

Is your site protected against the latest security threats? Choose a VeriSign SSL Certificate with free vulnerability assessment to help quickly identify and take action against the most exploitable weaknesses on your Web site. All VeriSign SSL Certificates include daily Web site malware scanning to alert you if your Web site is infected with malicious software. The combination helps extend security beyond https to your public-facing Web pages and reduce the risk of being blacklisted by Google or other search engines.

Easy to Trust: VeriSign Trust Seal and the Green Address Bar

Concerns about fake sites, viruses and identity theft make customers reluctant to click links they don't recognize. In fact, 73% of consumers want more assurance that their information is secure.* Make it easy for prospects to trust you by showing them that your Web site is trusted by VeriSign. Display the VeriSign Trust Seal and show your customers that:

• Your company and Web site are legitimate.
• Their transactions are safe and protected by high-quality security.
• Your site passed a daily scan for malicious code.
• Your business cares about the safety of its customers and has taken extra steps to ensure it.

Maximize trust even more with the green address bar in high security browsers by choosing an Extended Validation (EV) SSL Certificate.
