What are Secure Sockets Layer Certificates?

What Does SSL Mean?

SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is a protocol that guards your hosting store or sign-on page. The Secure Sockets Layer certificates, also called digital certificates, encrypt the sensitive details required from website visitors such as physical address, birth date, Social Security number, driver's licence or bank account information, so that nobody could use these details for unlawful purposes.

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

The digital certificates offer 256-bit encryption, and include a 10 000 US dollar warranty and a site seal for your site. You need to get a static IP.
