What are Secure Sockets Layer Certificates?

Online safety is a number one priority for everybody who buys products online, and your clients will want nothing but the highest possible security level when they purchase your products.

What Does SSL Mean?

SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is a protocol that safeguards your web storefront or logon page. The Secure Sockets Layer certificates, also called digital certificates, cipher the sensitive data requested from site visitors such as place of residence, date of birth, Social Security number, driver's licence or debit card details, so that no one could use this information for illicit purposes.

Your website visitors can identify a secure site by the ‘https' part at the beginning of the site address, or by the lock icon in the web browser window, or by a special seal on the website.

The certificates feature two hundred and fifty six-bit encryption, and include a $10K USD warranty and a static site seal for your site. You need to have a dedicated IP address.
