SSL Digital Certificates

Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology protects your Web site and makes it easy for your Web site visitors to trust you.SSL includes two methods for ensuring consumer confidence when performing transactions.

Encryption:

Encryption relies on an entity creating two keys that are used to encrypt information. These keys are related to each other in a very complicated mathematical way, but knowing one of the keys will not allow you to determine the other. One key is kept secret (the Private Key) while the other is made public (the Public Key). To send a secured message to this entity, you simply need to encrypt it using standard methods and that entity’s public key. Once encrypted, the only way to decrypt themessage is to use the private key. This means that the public key is used to encrypt information and the private key is used to decipher it. This is the basis for keeping SSL transmissions private.

Authentication:

The user should be confident that data received was really sent by the correct Website and not modified by a middle man like a hacker.When a browser points to a secured domain, an SSL handshake authenticates the server and the client and establishes an encryption method and a unique session key. They can begin a secure session that protects message privacy and message integrity
