VeriSign Shared Hosting Security Service


Online shoppers decide to buy online or share their personal information when they know they can trust the Web site requesting it. Without proof of encryption and a trust mark, many potential buyers will abandon their shopping carts and find other ways to make their purchases. ISPs have the opportunity to help merchants secure their sites and grow their profits by offering SSL Certificates and security services.

VeriSign Shared Hosting Security Service enables ISPs to install a single, specially-licensed SSL Certificate to share among multiple hosted Web sites with unique authentication for each organization. With the Shared Hosting Security Service, ISPs offer price-sensitive merchants access to the benefits of SSL protection: encryption, authentication, and a brand they can trust.

How Shared Hosting Security Works

Shared Hosting Security Service is offered through the VeriSign SSL Partners Program. An ISP purchases the service and installs the specially licensed SSL Certificate on the server hosting the secure pages. The merchant can use the shared hosting secure pages for encrypted transactions. VeriSign authenticates the merchant organization’s online identity and business registration before providing the VeriSign Secured® Seal.

To apply for the VeriSign Secured Seal, merchants enroll through their ISPs. Once authentication is complete, an approval email with the seal information is sent to the merchant’s organizational contact and the ISP. The merchant posts the VeriSign Secured Seal on its Web site.

The VeriSign Secure Site SSL Certificate is a high value, premium brand SSL Certificate. Secure Site fully-authenticated SSL Certificates enable encryption at 256-bit, 128-bit, 56-bit, or 40-bit levels depending on the client’s browser and the Web server configuration. Included are the VeriSign Secured Seal and a $100,000 NetSure warranty.
