What Does SSL Stand for?

SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is a protocol that guards your online shop or sign-on page. The SSL certificates, also known as digital certificates, encrypt the sensitive info requested from site visitors such as place of residence, date of birth, Social Security number, driving licence or credit card details, so that no one could use this information for illicit purposes.

Your site visitors can recognize a protected site by the ‘https' component at the beginning of the site address, or by the padlock icon in the browser window, or by a special seal on the site.

The SSL certificates feature two hundred and fifty six-bit encryption, and include a $10 000 US dollar warranty and a site seal for your website. You are required to get a dedicated IP address.
