Rackspace, VeriSign offer enterprise-class security safeguards

Rackspace Hosting is extending the protection it offers to its customers by offering the full line of secure sockets layer (SSL) certificates from VeriSign.

Under terms of a recently expanded agreement with VeriSign, Rackspace now can directly sell, install and renew VeriSign SSL certificates to its customers.

Also, Rackspace offers VeriSign extended validation SSL certificates, which offer a proven safeguard against phishing scams that lure unsuspecting consumers to sites that can appear almost identical to genuine web pages.

Rackspace not only sells VeriSign SSL Certificates, but also manages the entire process of ordering, installing and renewing certificates.
