Are my existing Entrust SSL Certificates still sufficient for securing online transactions?
top) From a cryptographic perspective, yes your current Entrust SSL Certificates are still going to result in encrypted SSL sessions. However, the greatest threat to online transactions is not cryptographic in nature – it is phishing. Phishing preys on consumer’s inability to discern between trustworthy sites and imposter sites. The EV initiative is targeted at making it easier for consumers to make that distinction. From a usability perspective, non-EV certificates will have decreasing effectiveness as consumers adopt the new browsers and come to expect the strong trust indicators provided by Entrust EV SSL Certificates while conducting transactions.
