In case you'd like to use an SSL Certificate on your website, to protect the payment and login info which users upload, you will need a Certificate Signing Request, or CSR. The Request contains all the information related to the entity which will use the SSL in an encoded form, such as the exact web address for the website, the Business/Organization name, physical and e-mail address. It has to be sent to a service provider, or Certificate Authority, which reviews the posted info and based on it, issues the SSL certificate. The actual SSL set up requires four bits of code - the certificate, the CSR, a special private key that is generated together with the CSR and the SSL vendor private key. A site which has an SSL installed can be opened with https:// rather than the usual http:// and the information submitted for the CSR will be viewed in standard text format via a web browser.

SSL Certificate Generator in Hosting

We provide SSL certificates along with our hosting plans, so if you would like to secure the data your visitors upload, you're able to get one from your Hepsia Control Panel. With our SSL wizard, you are able to type in the company/personal details that you would like to be associated with the certificate and our system will generate the CSR as well as a unique private key. You will receive an email message from our vendor in order to verify your order and after that, the SSL certificate will be set up automatically if you have selected this attribute in the wizard throughout your order. In this way, you will not have to do anything at all manually because our system will do the required and your brand new certificate will be active quickly after that. Needless to say, in case you wish to use a different SSL service provider, you can still use the CSR that you have created from your account.
