2008-08-30
In 2008, the Comodo companies have continuously innovated and introduced

Internet.
Jersey City, NJ, August 27, 2008 - "We contend daily with the challenge
of figuring out who and what to trust online," said CEO and Chief Security
Architect of Comodo CA, Melih Abdulhayoglu. "The Internet has yet to achieve its
full potential because we cannot tell the fraudsters from our friends. In 2008,
Comodo has worked hard to combat this problem."
The Comodo companies announced their vision and the solutions they have
developed for the architecture of the "Trusted Internet", a state that provides
everyone increased online safety by introducing trust into every online

technologies to protect digital assets and transactions through mutual,
