In case you offer services and products on your website and you'd like the payment info that people send to be protected, you should use an SSL certificate. Secure Sockets Layer is a protocol which encodes the info exchanged between a user and a server, but to obtain an SSL, you 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 that will use the certificate. The Certificate Authority studies and approves the CSR before it provides an SSL certificate that is signed electronically with its private key as an authority. In order to install an SSL, you'll need an overall of 4 batches of code - the CSR, a Private Key that is created when you generate your Request, the actual certificate plus a specific Certificate Authority code, that's unique for every single vendor.
