If you offer services and goods on your site and you'd like the payment information that users send to be secure, you need an SSL certificate. Secure Sockets Layer is a protocol which encodes the info exchanged between a user and a server, but to get an SSL, you'll need a Certificate Signing Request (CSR). This is Base64 encoded information that the SSL vendor will use to create the certificate. The CSR consists of the web address, Business name and Unit, mailing address and email of the organization which will use the certificate. The Certificate Authority reviews and authorizes the CSR before it issues an SSL certificate that is signed in an electronic format using its private key as an authority. To be able to set up an SSL, you need a total of four batches of code - the CSR, a Private Key that is made once you generate your Request, the actual certificate as well as a special Certificate Authority code, that's unique for every single vendor.
SSL Certificate Generator in Shared Hosting
If you host a site in a Linux shared hosting service with our company and you wish to acquire an SSL certificate for it, you will be able to do that with only a few clicks inside your Hepsia Control Panel. Using our intuitive SSL order wizard, you are able to enter and view the contact information that you'd like to be used for the certificate and after that pick the auto-configuration function that we have created to make things easier - when you accept the SSL request by clicking on the link that you'll receive via electronic mail after you send the order, our system will set up everything for you, so you won't be required to do anything manually at any moment. If you want to receive your certificate somewhere else, you'll be able to use our CSR generation tool and send the Request code to another service provider. A private key connected with the CSR will also be generated and available in the same section of your account.
SSL Certificate Generator in Semi-dedicated Hosting
All our semi-dedicated server accounts include a Certificate Signing Request generator along with an SSL installation wizard, therefore if you want to obtain a certificate for any site that you host on our servers, you can do it in no more than a few min. After you sign in to the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, that comes with all semi-dedicated accounts, you can go to the SSL Certificates section and type in your personal and business data. Our system will create the CSR, so that you will have two different options - if you want to obtain the certificate from us, you can process with the order in the exact same section and our system will install your SSL automatically once it was issued, or you could save the CSR on your computer and then use it to acquire an SSL through a different seller.
