GlobalSign Expands Online Security Offering into French Market
November 2009 by Emmanuelle Lamandé
GlobalSign announced the availability of its Digital Certificate and SSL products for the French market.
With the launch of a new dedicated website, ordering system and native
speaking sales and support services, the extension of GlobalSign’s services
is timed to capitalise on the above average growth in SSL requirements in
France (last year saw a 23% growth in the number of SSL certificates, making
France the fourth largest market in Europe*). GlobalSign aims to take the French market by storm over the next twelve
months.
GlobalSign will be offering its range of SSL Certificates via the new
website, including fast issuance and the most advanced Extended Validated
(EV) SSL Certificates, which activate the green address bar in new high
security browsers such as IE, Firefox, Opera, Chrome and Safari. French
customers will be able to purchase SSL to secure
their websites, online transactions, web mail and other next generation
online services using GlobalSign’s highly trusted and future proof
technology.
All GlobalSign Certificates are inclusive of Server Gated
Cryptography (SGC) (to “step up” weak 40 bit browser to server connections
to strong 128 bit), have the option of including additional premium features
(for example, Subject Alternative Names (SANs) and wildcard characters to
allow the securing of multiple domain names, sub domains, IP Addresses or
hostnames with a single certificate). All Certificates are issued from
GlobalSign’s future proof 2048 bit Certificate Authority Root, pre-installed
in all browsers, operating systems and mobile devices.
The new website will also be offering GlobalSign’s other Digital Certificate
solutions including SSL Managed Service for enterprises with multiple SSL
Certificate requirements, Code Signing and Root Signing solutions.
