If you offer products and services on your website and you'd like the payment information that users send to be secure, 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 obtain 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 website address, Business name and Unit, postal address and e-mail of the business which will use the certificate. The Certificate Authority reviews and approves the CSR before it gives an SSL certificate which is signed digitally using its private key as an authority. In order to install an SSL, you need an overall of four batches of code - the CSR, a Private Key that is created after you generate your Request, the actual certificate along with a special Certificate Authority code, that's unique for each vendor.

SSL Certificate Generator in Web Hosting

If you host a website in a web hosting account purchased from our company and its visitors upload sensitive data, you'll be able to obtain an SSL certificate for it directly through your hosting Control Panel and with only a couple of clicks. We have an easy-to-use order wizard, so you only need to choose the domain/subdomain and enter the mandatory information for your Certificate Signing Request. You'll receive an email to approve your order and shortly after the SSL is issued, it'll be installed automatically by our system, so you won't need to deal with any codes or settings. If if you plan to use the services of some other Certificate Authority, you can only generate a CSR from your Control Panel and then copy the code that you have to submit for the SSL. You shall find the private key generated along with the CSR in the very same section.
