What is SSL?
Secure Sockets Layer, SSL, is the standard security technology for
creating an encrypted link between a web server and a browser. This link
ensures that all data passed between the web server and browser remain
private and integral. SSL is an industry standard and is used by millions
of websites in the protection of their online transactions with their
customers. In order to be able to generate an SSL link, a web server requires
an SSL Certificate.
