Foundation Repair: Extended Validation SSL - A New Model for SSL Certificates and Browser Trust | 2008-09-01 | Entrust |
| In 2005, the longstanding Internet browser trust model, which had served as a foundation for many billions of dollars of e-commerce, was starting to show signs of age. Based on Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), certificates and the ubiquitous padlock icon, the browser trust model was reworked to help renew consumer confidence and to better suit handling e-commerce transaction volumes as they continued to increase. The new model was defined by a group called the CA/Browser Forum, and consumers first saw the results of their work in January 2007. This paper outlines why the group was formed, what it is working toward and the impact it has on consumers and Web site operators.

Juniper Networks Enables Secure Remote Access for the Thai Technology Institute | 2008-08-01 | Juniper Networks |
| As the number of users grew, the King Mongkut's Institute of Technology Lakdrabang (KMITL) network was challenged to provide secure remote connections for users accessing the campus network. The Computer Research and Service Center (CRSC) considered implementing a VPN, yet software had to be installed on every client computer, which made the system complicated and difficult to use. To avoid this, the CRSC decided to go with the Web version of a VPN-an SSL VPN solution-since most of the users would have a Web browser. KMITL deployed solution from Juniper Networks which comprises four components: the Juniper Networks Secure Access 2000 (SA 2000) SSL VPN, the J-series Services Routers J2350 and J6350, the ISG 2000, and SSG 550M.

GeoTrust Extended Validation SSL and Customer Confidence | 2008-07-30 | GeoTrust |
| The Internet brought about changes in the way one does business that made things easier for a lot of people¯ including criminals. In the brick-and-mortar world, a person would need to acquire the real estate, the staff, and the overall infrastructure to impersonate a physical branch of, say, a popular bank - not a very practical proposition. On the other hand, the Internet allows criminals to mimic the very same bank quite easily. With minimal effort, they can take advantage of the trust customers apply toward mainstream consumer brands. Criminals set up phony "Phishing" sites that look legitimate, yet have nothing to do with the real company they are impersonating. These Phishing sites then harvest sensitive personal data such as passwords, identity numbers and credit card numbers.
