The VeriSign Shared Hosting Security Service allows several top-level domains to use encryption from a single certificate issued to the Web host’s site after each domain has been individually authenticated. This addresses the security concerns outlined in the last question. A shared SSL certificate is issued to the Web host, which is installed in the same way as a dedicated certificate. Web site owners are also entitled to display the VeriSign Verified Seal for Shared Hosting on their sites when their ISP takes advantage of the VeriSign Shared Hosting Security Service. The Web site owner simply has to enroll through their ISP to apply for the VeriSign Verified Seal for Shared Hosting. VeriSign authenticates the Web site owners identity and domain ownership. Posting the VeriSign Verified Seal for Shared Hosting helps site visitors to know more about who they are doing business with.
