GeoTrust QuickSSL™ Breaks 10-Minute Barrier for SSL Provisioning

Web businesses are no longer shackled by 3-5 day waiting periods

We’re pleased to announce the release of GeoTrust QuickSSL, a new secure sockets layer product that provides near-instantaneous delivery of commercial quality, 128-bit, SSL digital certificates for encrypting communications between Web browsers and servers – the technology that activates the lock symbol in user’s browsers.

“With QuickSSL, GeoTrust is providing SSL certificates within 10 minutes of our receipt of a valid request,” said GeoTrust CEO, Neal Creighton. “Our new authentication systems process and respond to certificate requests automatically, allowing systems administrators, Web hosting companies, and anyone else needing SSL certificates to obtain them quickly and easily, without the 3-5 day wait typical of our competition.”

Web server certificates created by QuickSSL are recognized and accepted by the vast majority of SSL-capable Web browsers in use on the Internet today, including Microsoft Internet Explorer, Netscape Communicator, and Netscape Navigator. Businesses interested in obtaining a QuickSSL certificate can do so by visiting our web site at www.geotrust.com.
