If you offer products and services on your site and you would like the payment info that customers send to be risk-free, you need an SSL certificate. Secure Sockets Layer is a protocol which encrypts the information exchanged between a user and a web server, but in order to acquire an SSL, you need a Certificate Signing Request (CSR). This is Base64 encoded information that the SSL service provider will use to issue the certificate. The CSR contains the web address, Business name and Unit, postal address and e-mail of the organization that will use the certificate. The Certificate Authority reviews and authorizes the CSR before it provides an SSL certificate that is signed digitally using its private key as an authority. To be able to install an SSL, you need a total of four batches of code - the CSR, a Private Key that is made once you generate your Request, the actual certificate as well as a special Certificate Authority code, which is unique for each and every vendor.

Employing our SSL wizard, you can enter the company/personal details which you would like to be associated with the certificate and our system will generate the CSR and a specific private key. You'll get an e-mail from our vendor to verify your order and following that, the SSL certificate will be set up automatically if you have selected this attribute in the wizard during your order. This way, you will not need to do anything at all manually since our system will do the required and your unique certificate will be active soon after that.
