The green address bar displaying the organization’s name and GARA Security as the Certification Authority is difficult for a malicious site to imitate. These two core aspects of the EV standard combine to create a strong defense against phishing scams.
Help your customers gain the security of the green address bar.
The GARA SSLxe with EN comes with Extended Encryption the first technology to ”upgrade” all IR7 on Windows XP clients to turn their browser address bar green when they visit your EN certified Web site.

CAs that offer EN certificates without EN Upgrader functionality cannot guarantee that all IR7 clients will experience the benefits of ENSSL.
