Norton Secured, Powered by VeriSign
It's been over a year since Symantec acquired VeriSign's Identity and Authentication Services. Symantec has invested in several SSL Certificate upgrades–and more are coming.
The Most Recognized Trust Mark on the Internet
The VeriSign Checkmark, part of the most recognized trust mark on the Internet, was combined with the leading name in personal technology protection, Norton. Consumer tests by Symantec show that the new seal retains the high level of recognition and trust that VeriSign seal posters value.
In tests*, consumers selected the seal with the VeriSign Checkmark and Symantec’s Norton brand over other possible trust marks and more often than our competitors’ trust seals for the following attributes:
- 77% of consumers recognize the Norton Secured Seal.
- 65% of consumers agree that a website displaying the Norton Secured Seal is safe to browse and won’t give them a virus.
- 55% of consumers agree that a website displaying the Norton Secured Seal means that the website protects their online privacy.
