VisPerNET Partners with Comodo for Online Identity and Trust Assurance (ITA) Solutions

Premium IT Services Provider and industry innovator is latest addition to Comodo’s Reseller Network

Jersey City, NJ (June 14, 2007) - Comodo, a global leader in Identity and Trust Assurance Management solutions, today announced that VisPerNET, Inc. has chosen Comodo as its security and infrastructure partner so that VisPerNET will offer Comodo security solutions to its customers. Comodo's SSL certificates, EV SSL with EV-AUTO Enhancer™ Deployment and Maintenance Technology, HackerGuardian, and PCI Compliancy Scanning will head VisPerNET's new suite of security and authentication solutions.

VisPerNET's selection of Comodo was primarily driven by a synergy of business models. Both companies are committed to providing the most cutting-edge solutions and value-add features at prices well below industry standards. VisPerNET, Inc. has recently transformed web hosting into business-class online network resources with its premium, all-inclusive web hosting service that includes free corporate-grade Email, online backup and permissions-based file store and file sharing. VisPerNET office virtualization accounts start at $10/month for 5 GB web space and 500 GB data transfer. With its discount pricing well below that of the general industry, VisPerNET is advancing enterprise-class online network resources for small to mid-sized companies.

"Small to mid-size companies and individuals deserve the same computing power, software applications and web-based productivity solutions that only large corporations can afford," stated Vispi Gowadia, CEO of VisPerNET. "Comodo understands this need and their solutions are a synergistic fit with our portfolio."

Aligned with this approach, Comodo designed its ITA suite to be best in class, so that online merchants of all sizes have access to these vital solutions. The suite includes:

  • EV SSL certificates that delivers new level of site identity assurance through a highly visible green indicator
  • Comodo TrustLogo provides verifiable proof of the merchant's authenticity and the authenticity of the actual TrustLogo. Verification of the site identity is a simple mouse-over without any disruptive off-site clicking
  • HackerGuardian, a vulnerability scanning solution, performs more than 14,000 daily tests and offers remedial advice when a threat is detected
  • PCI scan compliancy certification to prove adherence to PCI industry standards which assures secure handling of sensitive customer credit card information

"Our partnership with VisPerNET reinforces Comodo's commitment to advancing a better-secured Internet infrastructure," said Melih Abdulhayoglu, CEO and Chief Security Architect of Comodo. "VisPerNET has a philosophy and business model much in line with Comodo's, and we are pleased that they chose to resell our products and solutions."
