SSL certificate for safe interaction over the Internet
In today's climate, security is key online. An SSL certificate meets the demand for safe interaction over the net.
When you walk into a shop you can see who and what you are dealing with, and be confident that should you desire you'll be able to speak to manager or owner. Online visitors have no way of knowing who owns the Website or what they are seeing is what they will get. Visitors on the net want proof of ownership and know that other users cannot intercept the personal information they send. This is possible thanks to SSL certificates.
SSL, short for secure sockets layer, a protocol developed by Netscape for transmitting private documents via the Internet. SSL works by using a private key to encrypt data that's transferred over the SSL connection, such as credit card numbers.
Conventionally URLs that require an SSL connection start with https: instead of http:. The certificate is installed on a secure server and used to identify the merchant using it and to encrypt the credit card, and other sensitive data.
If you have more than one domain to secure, then you should have more than one SSL certificate. Digital certificates are domain and host name specific, so you need as many SSL certificates as you have domain names.
