July 9, 2008 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- SaaS customer relationship management services provider FreeCRM (freecrm.com) has announced it is enhancing its data protection offerings by adding Extended Validation Secure Sockets Layer Certificates from VeriSign Inc (verisign.com) to its suite of security services to verify the authenticity of its web pages.

Announced Thursday, San Francisco-based FreeCRM said the addition of VeriSign EV SSL to new and current Professional Edition customer accounts provides the most comprehensive protection of customer data in the industry. VeriSign protects more than 900,000 Web servers with digital certificates, protecting the majority of secure sites on the internet, according to VeriSign, including 95% of Fortune 500 sites and 90 percent of the Internet Retailer 500 (internetretailer.com/top500).

FreeCRM also noted that all organizations with information worth protecting are susceptible to phishing and other online scams and protective measures should not be limited to banks and retailers. Eric Stone, CEO of FreeCRM parent company CRM ASP Inc (crmasp.com), said FreeCRM is the first CRM provider to offer this level of security, setting the bar for all other CRM and SaaS providers.

"In our industry, data protection is the most important issue for adoption of software-as-a-service. By working with VeriSign, whose globally recognized brand is synonymous with trust and security, we are demonstrating our commitment to safeguarding customer information online," said Stone. "By deploying VeriSign EV SSL Certificates, FreeCRM.com is putting the interests of our customers first and setting a new standard for online security among SaaS providers."

VeriSign recently underwent a $100 million expansion in European infrastructure to increase the scope of its global business framework.
