Symantec (now part of DigiCert)

Symantec, now part of DigiCert, is a cybersecurity company that specializes in digital security solutions, particularly SSL/TLS certificates. These certificates are like digital passports that verify the identity of websites, ensuring secure and encrypted connections between websites and users. This helps protect sensitive information like passwords and credit card details from hackers. DigiCert, which acquired Symantec’s website security business, continues to provide these trusted security certificates, ensuring safe online communications for businesses and individuals. In essence, Symantec/DigiCert helps make the internet a safer place by verifying identities and encrypting data during online interactions.
