CLIFTON, N.J., Feb. 08, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Comodo CA, a worldwide leader in digital identity solutions, has reached a significant milestone, announcing today that it has issued more than 100 million digital website certificates.
Comodo CA is the industry’s leading SSL certificate authority worldwide, with nearly 47% market share across the Alexa top one million, according to Datanyze.
“Hitting these new certificate industry milestones underscores the fantastic momentum we have achieved,” said Bill Holtz, CEO of Comodo CA. “The CA market and channel have responded very positively to our investments in technology and resources. Comodo CA is committed to ongoing investments in innovation and leadership, superior service levels and continued expansion in SSL, IoT and solutions for full certificate lifecycle management.”
Comodo CA’s latest market accomplishments culminate from a string of recent news including:
- The company’s acquisition by Francisco Partners and strategic expansion of leadership resources through the addition of industry veterans and leaders to spearhead worldwide channel and global business development initiatives.
- Addition of dozens of new channel partners attracted to Comodo’s industry-leading platform and capacity, and broader product offerings that allow them to sell additional value-added security services to their clients
- Significant investment in technology that improved service levels and added the capacity and automation needed to handle the rapid growth in the CA market driven by the universal move to HTTPS website security and the need for mass issuance of certificates for IoT devices
- Competitive upgrades that included one-year free equivalent certificates for all existing Symantec, Thawte and GeoTrust certificates affected by Google Chrome distrust issues
Google’s strategy to identify all HTTP web pages as “Not Secure” and their recent action in removing trust from Symantec certificates have contributed to Comodo’s extensive year-over-year growth.
