(WebHosting.Info)   GlobalSign Inc, a SSL Certificate security specialist, today announced “AutoCSR” and “One-Click SSL” two new SSL deployment technologies. The company states that these new technologies provide hosting companies with automation during the SSL application, approval and installation processes. It adds that this announcement comes in time for HostingCon 2008 in Chicago, a conference dedicated to hosting professionals in the world, where it will be demonstrating its technologies too.

It claims that automation of the SSL dertificate lifecycle (CSR generation, application, approval and Certificate installation) is essential if hosting companies are to offer SSL to customers of all technical levels without having to handle unwanted, and expensive, customer support issues. The company adds that with Auto-CSR, it has removed the need for end customers to create the CSR file themselves. As a result, it says that its partners can expect fewer support calls, less abandoned orders and a increased SSL Certificate delivery speed. Auto-CSR can be used with all web server types and control panels and is available to all GlobalSign Partners, it claims.

The company adds that the One-Click SSL allows hosting companies to fully automate the SSL certificate application, approval and installation process and creating levels of automation for mass SSL reselling. It articulates that when fully integrated, like the recent Verio deployment, hosting customers can secure their server with the click of a button, and there is no compromise to SSL Provider vetting processes. Traditional domain validation requires “domain approver” mailboxes to be setup and active, and emails delivered to an appropriate contact, something that cannot always be guaranteed - especially for hosting companies who manage customer’s domains on their behalf. The One-Click SSL method pioneered by the company eliminates all the issues traditionally associated with hosting companies reselling SSL, and is an innovative development in SSL delivery since the birth of the domain validated SSL Certificate.
