In case you offer services and goods on your site and you'd like the payment data that people submit to be risk-free, you should use an SSL certificate. Secure Sockets Layer is a protocol that encodes the information exchanged between a user and a server, but in order to get an SSL, you'll need a Certificate Signing Request (CSR). This is Base64 encoded data that the SSL service provider will use to create the certificate. The CSR consists of your web address, Business name and Unit, mailing address and e-mail of the business that will use the certificate. The Certificate Authority studies and approves the CSR before it issues an SSL certificate which is signed digitally using its private key as an authority. To be able to set up an SSL, you'll need an overall of four batches of code - the CSR, a Private Key that is created when you generate your Request, the actual certificate along with a special Certificate Authority code, which is unique for each and every vendor.
