Online Forms and Business Logins must present as SECURE.

All payment services must present as SECURE in the browser.

Browser changes have more than 60% of all UK websites presenting as NOT SECURE.

Chrome 59 (6/6/2017) goes even further in naming and shaming UK organisations who don’t comply.

This is all geared to the new GDPR rules coming into force 1/5/2018.

Big fines if you don’t comply. Up to 17% of last year’s revenue.

All designed to prevent Identity Theft/Fraud and protect your customers’ data.

Browser Changes

The SHA-1 algorithm is no longer secure. Google has already started to blocking SHA-1 SSL/TLS certificates from version 56, which was released on January 31st 2017. They have also started to mark all NON-HTTPS with FORMS, LOGIN or PAYMENT pages as NOT SECURE.

Microsoft and Mozilla have now announced they too will be ending support for SHA-1 HTTPS certificates – Mozilla from build 51 of Firefox (January 2017) and Microsoft Edge / Internet Explorer 11 from February 14th 2017. On all fronts, D-Day is finally arriving for SHA-1 and more importantly for unprotected sites.

There are multiple benefits to using EV SSL Certificates:

Increased Customer Confidence and Decreased Abandon Rates – The visual green address bar seen next to the URL of today’s most secure websites serves a clear indicator to your customers that your website is trusted and secure. Attackers cannot replicate it. It is a reminder that you have undergone and passed the rigorous validation process backed by the CA Browser Forum, so confidence is assured and transaction conversions increase.

Protection against Phishing and Attacks – EV SSL certificates give your website validity and protect against phishing and other malicious attacks with advanced encryption.

Savings – EV certificates prove the legitimacy of your website with branded protection and help reduce support costs and calls from customers who have given their credentials to malicious actors.

Multiple Domains – Entrust EV SSL Certificates are all established as “Multi-Domain,” meaning you can save time and money by securing up to 5 domains using one certificate.
