Industry-trusted SSL certificates that encrypt data, boost credibility, and help your site rank higher in search results
Without SSL, sensitive information like passwords, contact forms, and payment details can be intercepted. Modern browsers now flag non-SSL sites as “Not Secure,” which damages trust and conversions.
SSL Certificates are small data files that digitally bind a cryptographic key to an organization’s details. When installed on a web server, it activates the padlock and the https protocol (over port 443) and allows secure connections from a web server to a browser. Typically, SSL is used to secure credit card transactions, data transfer and logins.
An organization needs to install the SSL Certificate onto its web server to initiate secure sessions with browsers. Once installed, it is possible to connect to the website over https://www.domain.com, as this tells the server to establish a secure connection with the browser. Once a secure connection is established, all web traffic between the web server and the web browser will be secure. Browsers tell visitors a website is SSL secure via several visible trust indicators.
The domain names that are secured and the visible indicators presented to your visitors depending on the type of SSL Certificate you purchuse. The type of certificate also determines the differing levels of vetting the organization will need to go through. The information below will help you decide on which SSL Certificate best suits your needs.
