Cybersite SSL Certificate
An SSL Certificate is a special file on your web server that enables encrypted security for online communications and data transfer. SSL creates an encrypted (protected) connection between your web server and your visitors’ web browser allowing for private information such as credit card information to be transmitted without the problems of eavesdropping, data tampering, or message forgery.
Why You Need SSL Certificate?
To prevent customers’ sensitive data such as credit card numbers and passwords from being intercepted by third party.
To help visitors to identify your website as legitimate, and increase visitor trust.
Make potential customers feel safe and confident to perform online transactions or do business with you.
To boost your SEO page rankings on search results. HTTPS-enabled websites rank higher on search results than those without SSL certificates.
How Does SSL Work?
HTTPS pages typically use one of two secure protocols to encrypt communications – SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) or TLS (Transport Layer Security), with both of them using an ‘asymmetric’ Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) system.
An asymmetric system uses two ‘keys’ to encrypt communications, namely a ‘public’ key and a ‘private’ key. Anything encrypted with the public key can only be decrypted by the private key and vice-versa.
As the names suggest, the ‘private’ key should be kept strictly protected and should only be accessible by the owner of the private key. In the case of a website, the private key remains securely ensconced on the web server. On the contrary, the public key is intended to be distributed to anybody and everybody that needs to be able to decrypt information that was encrypted with the private key.

HTTPS makes it harder for hackers to steal important personal information (such as credit card numbers, addresses, passwords, etc.) by breaking the connection. If HTTPS connection is in effect, most web browsers, such as Internet Explorer, Firefox and Chrome will display a padlock icon in the address bar. This is extremely important in protecting the privacy of your clients or visitors when they make online transaction or enter personal details.
