If you offer services and products on your site and you would like the payment info that customers send to be risk-free, you should use an SSL certificate. Secure Sockets Layer is a protocol that encodes the info exchanged between a user and a server, but in order to acquire an SSL, you'll need a Certificate Signing Request (CSR). This is Base64 encoded information that the SSL vendor will use to issue the certificate. The CSR consists of the website address, Business name and Unit, postal address and email of the business which will use the certificate. The Certificate Authority evaluates and approves the CSR before it supplies an SSL certificate that is signed digitally using its private key as an authority. To set up an SSL, you'll need a total of 4 batches of code - the CSR, a Private Key that is created after you generate the Request, the actual certificate plus a specific Certificate Authority code, that is unique for each vendor.

SSL Certificate Generator in Shared Web Hosting

In case you host a website in a Linux shared web hosting service from us and you would like to acquire an SSL certificate for it, you'll be able to do that with just a few clicks inside your Hepsia Control Panel. With our intuitive SSL order wizard, you are able to enter and update the contact information that you would like to be used for the certificate and after that pick the auto-configuration attribute that we've created to make things easier - once you accept the SSL request by hitting the link that you'll receive through email after you send the order, our system will install everything for you, so you won't be required to do anything manually at any point. If you wish to receive a certificate elsewhere, you'll be able to take advantage of our CSR generation tool and send the Request code to an alternative vendor. A private key connected with the CSR will also be created and available in the very same section of your account.

SSL Certificate Generator in Semi-dedicated Hosting

The Hepsia website hosting Control Panel that is provided with our semi-dedicated server accounts has an inbuilt SSL certificate request generator, so if you host a website that you'd like to secure, you will be able to obtain a new SSL with a few clicks. You will just have to type in the details for your certificate in case it is not the same as the one you already have in your account and our system will generate the Certificate Signing Request along with the private key associated with it. If you decide to acquire the SSL through our company, you only need to choose the auto-configuration option throughout your order and our system will do the needed, so you will not need to set up the certificate manually. If you prefer to obtain the SSL from some other company, you only have to save the CSR code. Subsequently you'll have to set up your certificate, but if you haven't done this before or you have any problems, you can contact us and we'll install the SSL in a couple of minutes.
