VeriSign Microsoft Office/Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) Code Signing Digital Certificates: Realizing the Possibilities of Internet Software Distribution

Overview Businesses and organizations of all kinds rely on Web sites, intranets, and extranets to provide access to confidential information and enable e-commerce. Much of the information transmitted across the Internet is private, such as credit card numbers and financial or healthcare data. Given the sensitivity of such information, it is vital that one should protect it with Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption. SSL Certificates help give the customers and employees the assurance they need to conduct online transactions. VeriSign was a pioneer in the use of SSL Certificates when the first commercial Web browsers emerged. VeriSign Managed PKI for SSL (MPKI for SSL) Certificate Service offers a comprehensive and cost-effective solution for distributing SSL Certificates throughout even the largest company.
