SSL Certificate

What Is An SSL Certificate?

An SSL certificate acts as third-party verification for a website’s security. It verifies the strength of the Secure Socket Layer encryption used when a user connects to the site and connects that encryption to the organisation or individual that owns and maintains the website. SSL certification and validation are a necessary piece of web security for any business that collects information from its users.

Different SSL certificates provide different levels of security, depending on the level of protection and security features your website and its users need. You may be familiar with visual elements such as Site Seals, the HTTPS:// protocol appearing in the URL, and the green bar, but there are less-visible functions that help protect your website and visitors.

No matter what level of security you choose, your users will recognise that your site is safe, and that leads to greater trust in your brand online.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is SSL?

Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a protocol for enabling data encryption on the internet and for helping web site users confirm the owner of the web site. SSL is most commonly used to protect communications between web browsers and servers. However, it is increasingly used for server to server communications and for web-based applications.

What is encryption and why are there different levels?

Encryption is a mathematical process of coding and decoding information. The number of bits (40-bit, 56-bit, 128-bit, 256-bit) tells you the size of the key. Like a longer password, a larger key has more possible combinations. When an encrypted session is established, the encryption level is determined by the capability of the web browser, SSL certificate, web server, and client computer operating system.

Need an SSL certificate that is not Listed?

If you need an SSL certificate that is not listed here, feel free to contact our Sales Department to see if we can organise an SSL Certificate that you specifically need.

How Does an SSL Certificate Work?

An SSL Certificate ensures that the transmission of information and data passed between the browser and the server is private. With strong SSL encryptions, the icon of a green or gold padlock in a browser helps instil trust to your customers, turning them into paying visitors.
An E-Commerce website should have an SSL certificate to encrypt the information transfer green between customers and the server. Browsers check an SSL certificate to ensure it has not expired, the SSL certificate has been issued by trustworthy source and that the SSL certificate is being used for the correct website. If one of these three checks don't match, your browser displays a warning to the user telling them that the website they are on is not secured by an SSL certificate.

What is domain control validation?

RapidSSL will confirm domain control by sending an email to the administrator listed with the registrar for the domain. If the authorised administrator does not reply, a second email will be sent to an email address at the domain such as info@ or support@. (You may select a secondary email address during the enrolment process.) In addition to validation by email, you will be asked to provide a telephone number where you can be reached immediately after submitting your enrolment. If everything checks out, the SSL certificate is issued.

What does browser recognition mean?

When a browser or operating system encounters an SSL certificate, it checks to make sure that the certificate is valid and trusted. An SSL certificate is trusted if it is signed by a “trusted” or pre-installed root certificate. If a browser that does not contain the root CA certificate used to issue the SSL certificate, a security warning will alert them.
