Short for Secure Sockets Layer, a protocol developed by Netscape for transmitting private documents via the Internet. SSL uses a cryptographic system that uses two keys to encrypt data − a public key known to everyone and a private or secret key known only to the recipient of the message. Both Netscape Navigator and Internet Explorer support SSL, and many Web sites use the protocol to obtain confidential user information, such as credit card numbers. Normally you will see URLs that require an SSL connection start with https: instead of http:. Why do you need it? Your visitors, prospects, and customers are on their guard. These savvy Internet users are wary of Web sites and online businesses that aren't what they claim to be, and worried that their personal and financial information might fall into the wrong hands. Turn your customers' concerns into a competitive advantage. A Secure Certificate verifies that: - You met the thorough approval it takes to be issued the certificate. - Transactions with your site (like information exchange, or purchases) are secure. All certificates support both industry-standard 128-bit encryption and high grade 256-bit encryption. - Most importantly, it tells them they can do business with you safely because their sensitive information is encrypted and remains private.
