Comodo SSL Certificates Solve Trust Problems for Increasingly Demanded Internationalized Domains

Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) capability available on a broad portfolio of SSL offerings

Jersey City, NJ, October 07, 2008 — Companies utilizing Internationalized Domain Names (IDN’s) have long had to overcome visitor concern and uncertainty regarding the security and perceived authenticity of their websites. However, sites using Comodo SSL certificates have been able to address these concerns as they have seamlessly integrated with IDN’s. Comodo offers IDN visitors the traditional assurances of security and authenticity associated with SSL. This provides site visitors a safe and convenient mechanism to access websites in their preferred language. Furthermore, we have offered these services for years, well before it became standard practice in the digital certification industry.

Comodo’s systems are able to recognize and issue certificates that contain local language characters in all certificate fields. Not only will Internationalized Domain content be reflected in the certificate details, but Comodo’s Trusted Site Seal will also be presented in local language. Comodo systems are also fully internationalized across all certificate enrollment details including Code Signing Certificate product lines. We also offer S/MIME certificates on IDN email addresses. Comodo’s competitors are only beginning to meet the same standards.

Too many people still don’t trust a domain name displaying foreign characters,” said Melih Abulhayoglu, CEO and Chief Security Architect of Comodo. “When someone sees an IDN for the first time, that person’s natural inclination may be to think the site is fraudulent or unprotected. Using a Comodo SSL certificate with IDN support can help website owners overcome this problem.”
