Add a seal of confidence Sectorigo
This guide explains how to add a dynamic confidence seal to a secure site with a SSL certificate of Sectionigo.
Preamble
- Infomaniak, as host, offers SSL certificates to secure its customers' websites
- Sectorigo (formerly known as Comodo) is a recognized SSL certificate provider that offers different levels of security
- The "Dynamic Trust Seal", or "Sectigo Trust Seal" / "Sectigo Trust Logo" is a visual that website owners can display on their pages to tell visitors that their connection is secure, a sign of trust that informs users that transactions and exchanges of information on the site are encrypted and protected by an SSL certificate issued by Sectorigo.
- By using an SSL certificate from Sectorigo and by displaying the dynamic seal of trust, a website at Infomaniak therefore benefits not only from secure data exchange, but also from increased user confidence, which is essential in electronic commerce and for the protection of personal information.
Add a seal of trust
Here is how a dynamic seal of trust works:
- Validation To obtain such a seal, the site owner must first obtain a valid SSL certificate from Sectionigo, which requires a validation process; depending on the level of certificate chosen (Domain Validation - DV, Organization Validation - OV or Extended Validation - EV), this validation may be more or less thorough
- Installation : Once the SSL certificate has been obtained and installed on Infomaniak's web server, the website is then able to establish secure HTTPS connections
- Seal display : Sectionigo provides an HTML code or script that the owner of the site can then integrate into its website; this code allows to display the dynamic confidence seal of Sectionigo
- Update : the seal is often updated in real time to reflect the current status of the SSL certificate; if the certificate were to expire or be revoked, the seal would also reflect it, thus warning potential visitors that the site might no longer be secure
The trust seal consists of an HTML image and code. The latter only works if a Sectionigo certificate is installed on the site and in this case generates an interactive logo that displays the certificate data.
