Yes I believe these are also domain based SSL certs. Not really offering security and I doubt insurance but, they are free.

  Just curious, has anyone on HN ever successfully claimed money from SSL certificate insurance?

    I doubt these CA can write insurance contracts themselves without being a regulated insurance company so they must legally have an external insurance. I would be curious to know how much they are paying on this contract. The insurance bit is forced selling of an unwanted product. I am sure that 99% of certificate buyers do not need more insurance from their certificate provider than they need it from their hosting company, or the developers of Apache and OpenSSL.

    Insurance is for if someone suffers losses because a valid certificate was issued to someone it shouldn't have been.

  They offer the exact level of security any other SSL certificate provider offers.
