Extended Validation SSL
With the advent of Extended Validation SSL certificates in next generation web browsers such
as IE7, Microsoft have introduced an added complication. In order to get IE7 on Windows XP to
show the EV green bar, each CA (Certification Authority) that sells EV SSL Certificates has had
to issue a new Root Certificate. These new Root Certificates will not automatically be installed
on end-users' systems, and the EV green bar will NOT be seen until they are somehow
installed.

What makes Comodo Different from any other CA, i.e. Verisign?

Comodo EV AUTO Enhancer ™

What is Comodo EV AUTO Enhancer?
Comodo‟s patent-pending EV AUTO-Enhancer™ Automatic EV Deployment and maintenance
Technology is able to install Comodo‟s EV Root Certificate automatically on your customer‟s
computers. They do not need to install a patch from Windows Update and you do not need to
modify any of your WebPages. In addition, Comodo‟s EV AUTO-Enhancer™ guarantees to
give your customers the EV green bar immediately in IE7 (and next generation EV capable
browsers), even if they have JavaScript disabled in their browser!

Myth – Single Root Certificates are best practice
End entity certificates chained to an intermediate certificate represent the highest
possible security solutions for Certification Authorities and therefore their customers.

There exists a very small possibility, consistent amongst all certification authorities,
that the certificate used to sign end entity certificates could be compromised. The
signing process itself mandates that the signing certificate must be accessible in
order to perform the signing operation.

In the case of an intermediate certificate, the corresponding root certificate is
secured offline, eliminating the possibility of it being compromised by daily
signing processes.

End entity certificates directly signed by root certificates (i.e. no intermediate
protection) provide no recourse should the root certificate itself become
compromised. If an Intermediate were to be compromised then new intermediates
could be created and new end entity certificates could be issued.

Confidential

High profile examples of Chained SSL

Confidential

Aren’t intermediate certificates harder to install than direct root install certificates?

For IIS. Both Microsoft IIS 5.0 and IIS 6.0 are fully PKCS#7
compliant whereby they will automatically parse the certificate
extract the new intermediate and install it in the appropriate
certificate store. (Root certificates are also installed if previously
removed from the server.)

For Apache. Major CAs will deliver a „bundled‟ file containing the
complete certificate chain providing a single installation method for
the certificate.

Therefore the installation process of an intermediate certificate is no
more difficult than a direct root install certificate.

Matousec:
• Matousec found that it offered the highest level of "anti-leak" protection -- in essence, a measurement of a firewall's
effectiveness. Comodo offers true two-way firewall protection, is extremely configurable, and unlike most other firewalls,
gives you a great view into your system and Internet connection as well. It's free, as well.

Download.com (Cnet):
• "[Comodo Firewall Pro is] a solid, state-of-the-art firewall with little reason left to ignore it. Providing a smorgasbord of
information and options for advanced users, simple enough for beginners, and yet runs smoothly and silently in the
background, Comodo is a prime example of what a program that mucks about with your Internet connection should be
like."

Comodo offers the widest portfolio of high quality SSL Certificates to meet
the needs of every business. Whether you need SSL to establish trust,
