SSL Certificates
Securing your websites
The SSL technology encrypts the data before it is transmitted over the Internet.
An SSL (secure sockets layer) certificate is a way to build trust between a website owner and his website’s visitors. Simply put, you cannot expect someone to enter personal information such as credit card number, checking account information, name, address and other private details if you do not have a valid SSL certificate installed on your website.
An SSL certificate is a technology that can be integrated into a website to protect secure information. When you submit information online on a site that does not have a valid SSL certificate, the data can be seen by third parties who are “snooping” on the internet. The SSL technology encrypts the data before it is transmitted over the Internet. You know that a website is protected when you see “https://” in the URL address. The purpose of using SSL certificates is to protect the data transmitted so that your Web visitors can trust your site. Most Web surfers will not enter private data on an Internet Web page that does not have SSL protection.
