If you offer services and goods on your website and you would like the payment data that customers send to be protected, you will need an SSL certificate. Secure Sockets Layer is a protocol that encrypts the information exchanged between a user and a web server, but to acquire an SSL, you need a Certificate Signing Request (CSR). This is Base64 encoded information that the SSL supplier will use to create the certificate. The CSR contains the website address, Business name and Unit, mailing address and e-mail of the entity which will use the certificate. The Certificate Authority studies and approves the CSR before it gives an SSL certificate which is signed in an electronic format using its private key as an authority. To install an SSL, you will need an overall of four batches of code - the CSR, a Private Key that is made when you generate your Request, the actual certificate and a specific Certificate Authority code, that is unique for every single vendor.
SSL Certificate Generator in Cloud Website Hosting
If you host a site in a cloud website hosting account obtained from our company and its customers submit private information, you can acquire an SSL certificate for it straight through your web hosting Control Panel and with just a couple of clicks. We have an easy-to-operate order wizard, so you just have to choose the domain/subdomain and type in the needed information for the Certificate Signing Request. You will receive an email to approve your order and soon after the SSL is issued, it'll be set up automatically by our system, so you will not have to deal with any codes or settings. If you want to use the services of another Certificate Authority, you can only generate a CSR from your Control Panel then copy the code that you are required to submit for the SSL. You will see the private key generated along with the CSR in the same section.
