Using your library or your favorite search engine, find three Web sites that have an SSL-EV digital certificate. Note that some sites that do have SSL-EV certificates will not show the green background until you log in to the site or place an item in the sites shopping cart. For each site, write a paragraph in which you identify the CA that provides the SSL-EV certificate and explain why that site decided to incur the additional expense of buying an SSL-EV certificate. The Web Links for this exercise include links to CAs that sell SSL-EV digital certificates, which you might find useful.

Question 2

You have built an app that helps users store their passwords securely on their phones or tablet devices. The app has just been cleared for listings in both the Apple and Google Play markets. Companies such as Truste sell assurance services to online businesses that can convince potential customers that their products or services are safe to use. Visit the Truste Web site (or use your favorite search engine to find other companies that offer third-party assurance services to online merchants), review their service offerings for app developers, and write a 100-word evaluation of their assurance products. Conclude your evaluation with a decision about whether you would be likely to use these services and why.

Extended Validation SSL Certificates give web site visitors an easy and reliable way to establish trust online. Only SSL Certificates with Extended Validation (EV) will trigger high security web browsers to display a green address bar with the name of the organization that owns the SSL Certificate and the name of the Certificate Authority that issued it. The green bar shows site visitors that the transaction is encrypted and the organization has been authenticated according to the most rigorous industry standard.

Answer to Question 2

. For companies that heavily rely on data, TRUSTed Apps will:
