Changes are coming for resellable Symantecâ„¢ branded Enterprise offerings and Symantec web addresses. Read the details below so you can be ready to meet the expectations of your customers and ensure continuity for your revenue stream and operations.
To advance our brand transition as the leader in TLS products, our enterprise-oriented Symantec Complete Website Security (CWS) and Managed PKI for SSL (MPKI for SSL or MSSL) offerings have met their end of sale and are no longer accepting new accounts. This change went into effect on 1 October 2019. All new enterprise accounts should be created on ÃÛÌÒTV® CertCentral® Enterprise. Current CWS and MSSL accounts and licensing units remain valid until those consoles meet their end of life (EOL), currently planned for April 2020. Any active certificate issued through CWS and MSSL will remain valid until the end of its certificate lifecycle.
The ÃÛÌÒTV CertCentral Enterprise offering replaces CWS and MSSL and is resellable via ÃÛÌÒTV CertCentral Partner. Customers using CWS or MSSL will be able to migrate their valid organizations, domains, and certificates issued from public-facing hierarchies and must do so by the EOL date.
On 18 October 2019, we will migrate our websites' URL references from websecurity.symantec.com and www.websecurity.symantec.com to websecurity.digicert.com and www.websecurity.digicert.com, respectively.
