Comodo Positive SSL Certificate: Low Price, High Security

No frills, no fuss - this SSL certificate is purpose-built as a fast and cost-effective way of getting through the validation process and setting up an SSL certificate on the given domain. Naturally, SSL certificates of this grade don't have access to advanced features such as multi-domain coverage, nor can they cover unlimited sub-domains.

They do, however, apply 256-bit encryption (i.e. industry-standard encryption), come with a free Site Seal included, and stellar OS compatibility. This is a quick, affordable solution to incur mid-range protection of sensitive information and domain ownership, or even to protect online transactions if need be.

For small-scale websites with value-minded webmasters, there's simply no better - or cheaper - way to compile aggregate data quite as effectively. The fact that products from the PositiveSSL certificate lineup can be issued at such speed is a testament to the idea of immediacy and easy availability at a low price point.

Most Affordable of All SSL Certificates: Comodo PositiveSSL

SSL certificates from Comodo's PositiveSSL lineup are purpose-built as entry-level security products. They enact a baseline of encryption strength via domain validation, which makes PositiveSSL the option of choice for value-oriented domain owners. A Comodo Positive SSL certificate protects a single domain with top-end browser compatibility and can be used to apply 256-bit encryption to a wide range of services both simple and complex.

Keeping that in mind, this simplicity does not incur a problem with the provided level of security. Encryption strength is provided as-is, with the same baseline as a domain would get using a far more complex SSL certificate. Instead of diminishing encryption strength, Comodo lowers the price of this certificate range by keeping it lean and simple.

In effect, SSL certificates from this range cannot provide subdomain security - though Positive SSL Wildcard certificate products do exist - and they cannot provide extended validation of any kind. Instead, the focus is on getting the given domain validated on the cheap, and without compromising on security.

Stellar Value Proposition for Small-Scale Websites

By keeping the baseline PositiveSSL certificate simple, Comodo can get any domain validated in record time. Whereas Comodo certificates are generally extremely affordable across the board, Comodo PositiveSSL is the very pinnacle of this particular niche.

Domain validation keeps the costs low and implementations simple, with issuance times often as short as just 15 minutes from the submission of the CSR. In the simplest terms possible, this Comodo SSL certificate can be yours in a remarkably short time, which means that no domain needs to go unprotected for long at all.

What's particularly noteworthy is that all buyers of this Comodo SSL also get access to unlimited server licenses. This means that any given Comodo PositiveSSL can be installed on as many servers as you need, giving it unprecedented flexibility for real-world security. Getting a domain validated with the cheapest solution on the market doesn't mean you're losing out on security - with Comodo.

Because Not Every Domain Needs a Wildcard SSL Certificate

Though the functionality afforded by a Wildcard SSL certificate will be a must-have for some webmasters, this isn't always the case. The same goes for multi-domain products. Since every contemporary SSL certificate provides 256-bit encryption, the ideal way to go about choosing a new certificate is to consider one's use case.

If there aren't any sub-domains that you need to protect, and if there aren't multiple domains in place as part of your service offering, you shouldn't overspend on SSL certificates that offer the functionality you won't be using. This is where Comodo's most affordable HTTPS implementation comes in.

Comodo PositiveSSL certificates come with compatibility for all contemporary devices using all the popular browsers. At the same time, they also secure a wide gamut of visitors with industry-standard encryption procedures on a single domain name. This makes them the go-to option for website owners who want a no-frills security experience that can get set up in as little time as humanly possible.

Comodo SSL FAQ

PositiveSSL is effectively Comodo's most value-oriented sub-branding on the market. PositiveSSL certificates are built to deliver excellent security without many extra features or boons, but they're a reliable, trustworthy solution that bolsters a domain's trustworthiness without overspending.

All Comodo PositiveSSL products are domain-validated (DV). This means they're kept affordable and quick to issue by focusing on validating the domain and the domain ownership, rather than pushing ahead with a more thorough vetting solution. Multi-domain and Wildcard SSL products from the PositiveSSL lineup are DV, too.

Every Comodo SSL certificate is safe. From securing customer transactions to, say, a government's national institute, Comodo has proven time and again that they can secure virtually any website use case on the market. To that end, these certificates are a perfectly safe way of getting HTTPS in place on one's domain, and the $10,000 warranty package proves as much.

Yes, Comodo is a Certificate Authority (CA), and one of the leading companies in this particular niche. Oriented towards cost-effective domain security that complies with the latest browser requirements, but doesn't actually forego any of the necessities related to certificate implementations.

Paul from SSLTrust came to my rescue after another supplier let me down due to horrendous support and a useless certificate. Paul took the time to understand my requirements and he held my hand through every step of the process. Now my application is code signed. It was a breeze and my confidence in the process is restored. Thank you.

in the last week

We have ordered an code signing certificate from SSLTrust. Validation was a bit tricky in our case (because of reasons not related to SSLTrust), so had to contact support. The service was exceptional and just a local phone call away. We first spoke to Paul - an experienced and knowledgeable person, who was very helpful and friendly. He then followed up with emails and kept an eye on our case, in timely manner. With Paul's help we managed to get this accomplished and get our certificate. I recommend SSLTrust for all Australian customers and will certainly use their service again.
