If you offer goods and services on your website and you'd like the payment data that users upload to be protected, you need an SSL certificate. Secure Sockets Layer is a protocol that encrypts the info exchanged between a user and a web server, but to obtain an SSL, you will need a Certificate Signing Request (CSR). This is Base64 encoded data that the SSL supplier will use to issue the certificate. The CSR features the website address, Business name and Unit, postal address and e-mail of the entity that will use the certificate. The Certificate Authority evaluates and authorizes the CSR before it issues an SSL certificate which is signed in an electronic format with its private key as an authority. To be able to install an SSL, you will need an overall of 4 batches of code - the CSR, a Private Key that is created after you generate the Request, the actual certificate plus a special Certificate Authority code, that's unique for each and every vendor.
