SSL Certificates provide validation that businesses who request personal or financial information online are offering a higher level of security and privacy than typical Internet sites. Go Daddy's Starfield Certification Authority offers 128-bit web server certificates, the highest level of encryption available on the market today.
The WebTrust Seal of Assurance was awarded by the American Institute of Certified Public Accounts (www.AICPA.org) and the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (www.CICA.ca) after a confirmation of Go Daddy's authentication and security processes for the sale of SSL certificates.
"We believe that privacy and security is an essential part of any eCommerce site," says Parsons. "Using a Go Daddy SSL Certificate reduces the fear that private or personal information can be stolen during an online transaction. The WebTrust Seal just reiterates what our customers have known for years -- Go Daddy registrar of domain names offers only the best."
