 What the VeriSign Secured Seal Means
The VeriSign Secured Seal means that a connection has been established to a domain secured by a VeriSign SSL Certificate. SSL enables an encrypted communication channel between your Web browser and the Web site server so that you can transfer sensitive information securely. When you send sensitive information, like a credit card number or password, encryption keeps it private. Learn more: Secure Sockets Layer (SSL): How It Works
What the VeriSign Secured Seal Tells You
Every SSL Certificate is created for a particular server in a specific domain. Before submitting personal information (even a log-in and password), you can verify the site’s identity by viewing the VeriSign Secured Seal. The VeriSign Secured Seal shows you the site name and certificate owner information authenticated by VeriSign and stored on our servers. If the information does not match or the certificate has expired, you should use another method to establish trust with the Web site you are visiting.
- The URL of the pop-up window is https://seal.verisign.com/.

- The certificate is valid.
- The company name is the company you expected.
