Enterprise SSL full features and benefits include:

Multi-year certificates.
Enterprise SSL offers multi-year certificates at signification cost savings, and they allow you to avoid the process of renewing certificates every year.

Wildcard certificates.
Enterprise SSL offers wildcard certificates that can secure multiple fully qualified domains if they share the same base domain name and reside on the same physical server.

99% browser ubiquity.
Enterprise SSL certificates are issued off of one of the world’s most trusted roots. They deliver ubiquitous recognition with leading servers and 99% web browser recognition. (A detailed list of compatible servers and browsers is available at by clicking here)

Fully owned roots.
GeoTrust owns all of its roots, and as a result, our certificates offer the highest level of stability. Unlike other companies which issue certificates off chained roots or license roots from third parties, GeoTrust is able to offer customers an assurance of root stability during the lifetime of a certificate.

Web-based certificate lifecycle management and administration.
At the core of Enterprise SSL is GeoCenter -- the administrative portal that provides complete certificate lifecycle management capabilities and a common point for administration of enterprise-wide SSL server certificates. Multiple administrators can handle certificate requests and certificate management functions from a customizable GUI-based web interface, thereby easing the burden of certificate management delegation.

Patented “smart” site seals.
Enterprise SSL comes with a patented “smart” site seal that allows your customers to identify and confirm your web site’s legitimacy. This dynamically-generated seal resides on your web pages, automatically identifying your site as genuine, authentic and validated by an independent third party. When a customer clicks on the seal, the server automatically performs a domain look-up to verify they’re visiting a legitimate site.

Full business authentication.
GeoTrust performs business identity authentication for all Enterprise SSL customers. This process typically takes one to two business days and validates that the organization requesting certificates is the legitimate owner of the domain name, and that the company that owns the domain name exists and is appropriately registered. Unlimited, free self-service reissues. Enterprise SSL provides a quick and easy way to reissue lost certificates at no charge. After re-validating certificate information online, the new certificate is issued immediately and is valid from the date of reissue until the original expiration date.

Competitive replacement program.
Enterprise SSL provides a simple way to switch from another vendor’s certificates or transition multiple certificates from disparate certificate vendors. The competitive replacement program allows you to retain the full value of existing certificate investments, by adding the remaining validity period of any active vendor certificates to your new GeoTrust certificates -- up to 12 additional free months depending on when your current certificate expires.

Certificate insurance policy.
Some vendors offer certificates that have premium warranty polices or liability insurance, but such insurance comes at a price -- usually in the form of inflated certificate costs. At no additional charge, GeoTrust provides limited liability insurance for its Enterprise SSL certificates. This information is outlined in detail in the Certificate Practice Statement (CPS).

Automatic renewal reminders and early renewal options.
With Enterprise SSL, administrators are automatically notified when their certificates are close to expiration, so certificates are always operating at optimal levels. GeoTrust also allows administrators to renew certificates up to 90 days early and receive up to three months credit on new certificates.
