Buy Single Root SSL

Everyday you surf innumerable websites. Do you trust all the websites you visit? Whenever you connect to a web-server, do you know whether it is authorized or not?

Whenever you connect to a web-server over SSL, it is your browser that decides whether or not to trust the website’s SSL certificate based on which Certification Authority issued the actual SSL certificate.

How to determine whether a site is to be trusted or not?

To determine whether to trust a site or not, the browser looks at its list of trusted issuing authorities – represented by a collection of Trusted Root Certification Authority (CA) certificates added into the browser by the browser vendor (For e.g. Microsoft).

Most SSL certificates are issued by Certification Authorities who own and use their own Trusted Root Certification Authority certificates. Such certificates are known as Single Root SSL Certificates. The best bet is to buy digital single root certificates which have 128/256 bit digital encryption.

Other additional benefits that you get when you buy a Single Root SSL Certificate include industry standard 128/256 Bit encryption technology, super quick certificate issuance as well as very high browser recognition rates.

Single Root SSL Certificates vis-à-vis Chained Root SSL certificates

Single root certificates do not require any intermediate roots to be loaded since the root certificate is automatically recognized and trusted by browsers, email clients and applications.

Chained certificates are issued on an intermediate root and not the top level root certificate. Therefore the intermediate root must be manually loaded on every web server and application that is hosting the certificate before the SSL certificate is accepted by web browsers.

Thus, the installation of chained root certificates is much more complex and tiresome for network administrators and also it is very difficult to renew chained root certificate. Chained root certificates also pose serious security risks since they are not compatible with certain web servers.

Remember, installation of chained root certificates is highly complex and some web servers and applications do not work with chained root certificates. Chained root certificates require additional effort to install as the web server must also have the chained root installed. This is not the case with single root certificates. Therefore, most business units prefer to buy single root SSL certificates.

Since chained intermediate roots also have an expiration date, they generally expire prior to the root certificate, which adds to the complexity of transitioning over to a new root. This causes the SSL certificate to lose credibility and makes it invalid. It is very easy to renew the Single root certificate than the chained root.

Why buy 256 bit encrypted digital single root SSL certificates?

If you want to ensure that your site is to be trusted for a long time that you don’t have to renew the certificate often – buy single root SSL certificates especially 256 bit encrypted certificate. This is because 256 bit encryption is the next generation of encryption technology that is expected to remain in demand for a long time to come.

These CAs are already recognised by all major browser vendors and their Root Certificates included in the trusted lists of browsers.
