MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Symantec Corp. (NASDAQ:SYMC), one of the world’s leading cyber security companies, today announced that Plesk, a leading WebOps platform, will now incorporate Symantec’s Encryption Everywhere security offerings into its website management platform and control panel, giving web professionals, small businesses, and cloud service providers one-click access to website encryption and customized security offerings. Symantec Encryption Everywhere is a website security solution that enables web hosting providers to seamlessly integrate security into every website. The newest version of Symantec Encryption Everywhere includes secure email and award-winning anti-virus and spyware removal from Norton.
“Small businesses, web professionals and cloud service providers want better security for their websites, but are often intimidated by the complexities of online security and encryption,” said Roxane Divol, executive vice president and general manager for Website Security at Symantec. “Yet, browsers have begun flagging unencrypted websites as unsafe, causing businesses to lose brand trust, increase abandoned cart rates and find themselves open to hacking. Symantec and partners like Plesk are natively integrating basic encryption into websites and applications for easy compliance with browser security requirements, and options to expand beyond encryption as security needs grow.”
Plesk will make it easy to manage and activate Symantec security packages within their website management platform and control panel. Plesk services over 11 million websites and 19 million mail boxes in 140 countries. Plesk enables all features deeply integrated and offering all available security offerings from Symantec at your fingertips. Hosting partners of Plesk will be able to resell these as well.
“Encryption is no longer a nice-to-have for websites, but a must-have,” said Nils Hueneke, CEO at Plesk. “Our goal with all our WebOps solutions is to simplify the life of small businesses, web professionals and cloud service providers. By partnering with Symantec, we can offer the world’s most trusted security solutions to our customers seamlessly within our platform. In addition, the Symantec Encryption Everywhere program gives our partners a range of upsell opportunities that not only add value and brand differentiation, but also additional revenue streams.”
