What is SSL?
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is an encryption method that invariably secures the browser processed personal details through to the server. This is the technology used by SSL Certificates to ensure data protection while en route from browser to the server that has installed it.
What Is The Basic Use Of SSL Certificates?
The primary reason why SSL is used is to keep sensitive information sent across the Internet encrypted so that only the intended recipient can understand it. This is important because the information you send on the Internet is passed from computer to computer to get to the destination server. Any computer in between you and the server can see your credit card numbers, usernames and passwords, and other sensitive information if it is not encrypted with an SSL certificate. When an SSL certificate is used, the information becomes unreadable to everyone except for the server you are sending the information to. This protects it from hackers and identity thieves.
