MyCreditHealth.com Offers Added Security with Green Bar Implementation

    DALLAS, TX, October 23, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Credit monitoring service provider, MyCreditHealth.com, strengthened site security with Extended Validation SSL. Also dubbed the "green bar", EV SSL helps online shoppers identify sites that have been deemed secure by infrastructure specialist VeriSign . This feature provides defense against phishing and counterfeit scams and brings comfort to customers by informing them that they are visiting a safe site.

Upon visiting MyCreditHealth.com, customers will notice the address bar on their browser to be green. The green color symbolizes verification that the site has been deemed secure by a third-party vendor. The vendor works with the web browser to prevent fraudulent activity on the site. This requires no additional steps by the customer and is handled on the back end by the third-party.

Not all sites qualify for this added protection. To obtain the green bar, MyCreditHealth.com was required to meet the Extended Validation Standards defined by VeriSign . To validate their compliance with specific criteria, the Certificate Authority ensured authenticity of site ownership, company status, and ensured the right to request the security certificate prior to it being issued.

"Security with MyCreditHealth starts from the moment you visit our site," said a lead development specialist for MyCreditHealth.com. "We wanted to ease the minds of customers looking to fill their credit monitoring needs and assure them that our site is secure and verified by VeriSign."
