LONDON, UK - 28 JUNE 2016 - 3CX, developer of the next-generation software-based Unified Communications Solution, is pleased to announce its cooperation with the security certificate authority Let’s Encrypt.
3CX, working with Let’s Encrypt, is able to provide trusted security certificates for its customers. By managing this process, which can be time-consuming and costly, 3CX provides an inestimable service at no cost to its partners and end-users. Users get the certificates delivered automatically and immediately - it is no longer necessary to work with third-party certificate providers who can take days and even weeks to provide the certificates.
What’s more, the user is assured that the security certification is of the highest quality in the industry: Let's Encrypt root certificates are cross-signed by IdenTrust, a company that already runs a long-standing and trusted CA. Let’s Encrypt is also sponsored by some of the best-known names in the software industry.
3CX has also become a sponsor of Let’s Encrypt, providing support for the continuing provision of trusted security certificates for data communications.
Nick Galea, 3CX CEO, said:
”Security has always been a top priority for 3CX, and HTTPS certificates automatically make 3CX deployments much more secure. The cooperation with Let’s Encrypt affirms our commitment to providing the highest possible grade of security.”Josh Aas, Executive Director, Let’s Encrypt, said:
"3CX has shown strong support for a more secure and privacy-respecting Web by making HTTPS easily available for their customers and being an early sponsor of Let's Encrypt."
