2009-01-13
Jersey City, NJ, January 13, 2009 - Comodo CA, Ltd, advises taxpayers who
file individual income tax returns online through an Authorized IRS e-file
provider to be sure that the web site that collects their personal tax
information is protected by an Extended Validation (EV) SSL Certificate. The IRS
strongly encourages Authorized e-file providers who participate in online filing
of individual income tax returns to implement the new standards, including
Extended Validation (EV) SSL certificates to encrypt taxpayer private
information. New IRS e-file security and privacy standards
"Look for a green browser bar instead of a green eyeshade," said Melih
Abdulhayoglu, CEO and Chief Security Architect at Comodo. When a website's
communications are encrypted by EV SSL, the browser bars in most major browsers
turn green.
Only online businesses that can demonstrate their business identity according to
the Extended Validation standard can be authorized to receive an EV SSL
certificate.
Comodo CA is a Certificate Authority, the second-largest issuer of
high-assurance digital certificates such as the EV SSL certificate. For more
