VASCO Announces Own Set Of CertiID SSL, EV SSL Certificates

VASCO Data Security Inc., a software security company specialising in authentication products and services, has announced that it will tackle the global SSL and EV SSL market with its own set of CertiID SSL and EV SSL certificates. VASCO’s move towards the global SSL-certificate sector is a consequence of its recent acquisition of the Dutch internet trust provider DigiNotar.

DigiNotar, a VASCO company, will be responsible for issuing and verifying VASCO’s CertiID SSL and EV SSL certificates. With VASCO’s SSL and EV SSL certificates, companies can add an extra layer to their web security, by identifying the server and encrypting the data transport between the end user pc and the server. VASCO’s CertiID SSL and EV SSL certificates can be acquired through its global channel network of distributors and resellers and via VASCO’s and DigiNotar’s websites.
