DigiCert completes WebTrust Certification
Lindon, UT - 08, 10 2005 - DigiCert meets WebTrust standards for SSL Certificate Authorities.
Today Ken Bretschneider, CEO of DigiCert, Inc. announced that DigiCert has met the WebTrust standards for SSL Certificate Authorities, set by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants [AICPU].
"We are very proud to be WebTrust compliant", said Mr. Bretschneider, "Only firms with the absolute highest levels of security and integrity can pass such a rigorous audit." DigiCert follows a complex process of stringent procedures to ensure that your security is not compromised, and that there is appropriate authentication of every certificate we issue," he said. Today WebTrust is playing a key role in establishing consumer confidence in trusted brands like DigiCert. Under the WebTrust program, DigiCert is rigorously audited to ensure compliance with the following WebTrust principles:
- Privacy
- Security
- Processing Integrity
- Business Practices
- Transaction Integrity

Large organizations cannot afford the risk of a compromised certificate. They need reliable assurance that their SSL Certificate Authority maintains strong security controls, and strictly adheres to SSL standards when issuing certificates. WebTrust certification provides that assurance.
