OneClickSSL Now Available through Parallels Partner
Storefront
Easy access to the revolutionary
SSL provision and installation system for Hosting Companies and
SMEs
SINGAPORE, Aug. 29, 2011
/PRNewswire-Asia/ -- GlobalSign (www.globalsign.com.sg), a
specialist in SSL partner programs and security automation
technologies, announces it has partnered with Parallels (www.parallels.com) to offer its
automated SSL delivery and installation technology, OneClickSSL,
via the Parallels Storefront. OneClickSSL via Storefront will allow
Plesk 10 users to resell fully automated SSL - opening up new
revenue opportunities and greatly reducing hosting support costs.
For users that employ SSL for their own websites, OneClickSSL
automates the traditional SSL lifecycle, reducing management costs
and making use of SSL simpler and faster.
With OneClickSSL, Plesk users simply
activate SSL for their website by purchasing a Secure Site voucher,
which can be purchased directly from GlobalSign or through
partnering hosting companies. Customers then redeem the Secure Site
voucher via the OneClickSSL plug-in integrated with Parallels
Plesk. Redemption of the voucher simply involves the entry of the
voucher code and a click of the Activate SSL button; the rest of
the process is transparent.
The OneClickSSL plug-in
automatically creates the cryptographic keys, the Certificate
Signing Request (CSR), validates the control of the domain,
installs the issued certificate and binds it to the appropriate
website, all within 45 seconds, thus eliminating the SSL support
overhead for the website owner or hosting company. OneClickSSL
rewrites the SSL paradigm by moving away from the traditional,
long-winded and error prone process of SSL provisioning and
replaces it with an automated "click to Activate SSL" workflow
easily understood by customers of all technical abilities.
"We are very excited to partner with
GlobalSign and look forward to offering the most innovative SSL
delivery mechanism that currently exists to our customer base,"
said Bryan Goode, VP, GM Parallels Marketplace. "OneClickSSL fits
perfectly with the Parallels automation philosophy and will further
allow Plesk customers to focus on their core business."
"Applying and installing SSL
Certificates has caused headaches for customers and hosting
companies for over 15 years, so we are delighted to see Parallels
added OneClickSSL into the Parallels Storefront," said Steve Waite,
Chief Marketing Officer, GMO GlobalSign Inc. "OneClickSSL will
allow Parallels' thousands of hosting customers and SME end users
direct access to automation technology to secure their websites in
only seconds."
OneClickSSL is now available via the
Parallels Storefront for Plesk 10 and from the GlobalSign Parallels
microsite at http://www.globalsign.com/ssl/oneclickssl/parallels/ for
previous versions of Plesk.
Customers interested in using
OneClickSSL via Parallels Plesk can simply purchase a Secure Site
voucher from GlobalSign at http://www.globalsign.com/ssl/oneclickssl/storefront .
