The SGC SuperCert with EV is thawte's highest authentication and strongest encryption SSL Certificate. It offers corporations and government entities the highest industry standard for identity authentication. End users with the latest high-security web browsers will see a highly visible green address bar verifying the authenticity of your site if you secure your web site with an Extended Validation SSL Certificate. This is the only level of authentication that is identified with the trusted green address bar and a scrolling window identifying both the name of the web site and the Certificate Authority for the web site.

thawte's SGC SuperCert with EV also automatically steps up encryption to 128-bit levels even if your customers use older browsers which otherwise would be limited to 40-bit or 56-bit encryption capabilities. 256-bit encryption can be enabled if your client's browser capability and the cipher suite installed on your web server are both 256-bit compatible.

thawte's SGC SuperCert with EV delivers the best security for both the vendor and the consumer. Recent studies conducted by the Yankee Group showed that SGC-enabled certificates can provide increased security for tens of millions of PC users if all e-commerce vendors were to use SGC-enabled certificates.
