Comodo chosen by BitEngines to power new SSL product range

QualitySSL by BitEngines is launched and expected to become important player in SSL market

London, UK. Comodo, the Internet security specialists, has announced that it has been chosen to power a new SSL product range for BitEngines, the Danish Internet applications and services provider. Launched today, QualitySSL (www.qualityssl.com) by BitEngines provides industry standard 128bit SSL Certificates with 99% browser compatibility, full validation and expert customer care. QualitySSL Certificates are available at the industry leading pricing of only $25.00 per SSL Certificate for a promotional period - making them the most cost effective fully validated and supported SSL Certificates currently available.

"We expect QualitySSL to become a major player in the SSL providers market," comments Pascal Geuns, founder of BitEngines, "We are dedicated to combining customer care with a technically excellent product. As veterans in the Internet services market we realize this combination is the true key to success".

QualitySSL is one of the first SSL brands to use Comodo's new "Powered Security" services. Powered Security services allow companies to provide privately labelled 128-bit industry standard SSL Certificates and web identity products directly to end customers through their own branded interfaces. Comodo operate the backend Certification Authority legal and insurance infrastructure responsible for the actual processing, validation, issuance and support of the SSL Certificate.

Powered SSL Certificates allow companies to provide their own globally accepted SSL Certificates and with 99% browser compatibility the Certificates are as trusted as Verisign and Thawte. Such facilities are ideal for organisations wishing to maintain their own branding within their own SSL product offerings.

"Comodo have played am essential part in the realization of the QualitySSL brand", states Geuns, "As well as providing the core technology and services that makes QualitySSL possible, Comodo's dedicated CA technical team have been involved in all aspects of the project to ensure it is successful."

"We are pleased to have BitEngines as one of the first companies using our Powered Security services" states Paul Tourret, Managing Director of Comodo Limited, "Like our other Powered Security service customers, we expect QualitySSL to quickly establish itself as a prominent name in the SSL market."

"Many companies, whether they are resellers, ISPs, web hosts or application providers have long wished to provide their own SSL Certificates. However the costs of market entry, for example the investment required in the technical, legal and support infrastructure associated with a Certification Authority have prevented them" continues Tourret, "Powered Security services are ideal for such companies - branded SSL solutions without the traditional technology and management capital requirements. We expect Powered SSL to revolutionize the SSL market!"

As part of QualitySSL launch promotions, 1 year SSL Certificates that will ordinarily retail at $125 are available at the special promotional price of only $25.00. All QualitySSL Certificates are industry standard fully validated and expertly supported 128-bit SSL Certificates compatible with 99% of all browsers. Available until the year-end, the promotional offer sees QualitySSL as the most cost effective provider of fully validated and fully supported SSL Certificates.

Comodo also offers standard non-Powered SSL programs for companies wishing to resell Comodo's established InstantSSL brand. Since its inception in May 2002, over 350 resellers, ISPs and hosting companies have joined Comodo and actively promote and resell InstantSSL Certificates.
