It is with great pleasure that I can announce that Tayna.co.uk has just become the first UK battery site to qualify for and introduce the new EV ‘Green Bar’ SSL certificate.
As we all know, in this day and age you should never enter personal and confidential information into a website unless the site has an SSL certificate. This certificate ensures that all information transmitted from you to the website is encrypted and cannot be read if intercepted. This is all well and good, but what if the person who owns the website cannot be trusted with this data..? After all, anybody can buy an SSL certificate for as little as £15.00.
This is where the EV (Extended Verification) SSL certificate comes in. Anybody who applies for an EV certificate has to undergo a series of detailed financial and identification procedures to confirm their identity, aimed at removing the element of risk when purchasing for an SSL secured website.
You can identify an EV SSL secured website by the ‘Green Bar’ that appears in your browser as below:
Further details on EV SSL security checks can be found on the Certification Authority Browser Forum website.
