What Exactly are SSL Certificates?

Online security is a main priority for everyone who shops online, and your clients will want nothing but the highest possible level of security when they pay for your products.

What Does SSL Denote?

SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is a protocol that secures your web store or sign-on page. The Secure Sockets Layer certificates, also referred to as digital certificates, encrypt the sensitive info required from site visitors such as address, birth date, national identity number, driver's licence or bank account details, so that nobody could use this info for illicit purposes.

Your web site guests can recognize a protected site by the ‘https' part at the beginning of the Internet address, or by the locked padlock icon in the web browser window, or by a special seal on the site.

The certificates feature 256-bit encryption, and include a 10 000 US dollar warranty and a static site seal for your website. You are required to get a static IP.
