What is an SSL certificate?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

An SSL certificate<\/strong> is a digital certification that verifies the identity of a website and allows for a secure connection. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a security protocol that establishes an encrypted connection between a web server and a web browser.
SSL certificates<\/a> must be installed on a company’s or organization’s website in order to safeguard online transactions and keep customer information private and secure.
In a nutshell, SSL protects internet connections by preventing thieves from reading or altering data sent between two systems. SSL safeguards<\/strong> the website you’re visiting if you see a padlock icon next to the URL in the address bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
