In case you wish to use an SSL Certificate for your site, in order to protect the payment and login data which users post, you'll need a Certificate Signing Request, or CSR. The Request contains all the info about the entity that will use the SSL in an encoded form, for instance the exact web address for the website, the Business/Organization name, physical and email address. It needs to be submitted to a vendor, or Certificate Authority, which reviews the posted data and depending on it, issues the SSL certificate. The actual SSL set up requires 4 bits of code - the certificate, the CSR, a unique private key which is generated along with the CSR and the SSL vendor private key. A website which has an SSL installed can be opened with https:// rather than the usual http:// and the information submitted for the CSR can be viewed in standard text format via an Internet browser.

SSL Certificate Generator in Shared Hosting

We provide SSL certificates in addition to our shared hosting plans, so if you wish to give protection to the details your visitors submit, you'll be able to get one right from the Hepsia Control Panel. Employing our SSL wizard, you'll be able to type in the company/personal details that you want to be associated with the certificate and our system will generate the CSR plus a special private key. You'll receive an e-mail message from our vendor to confirm the order and after that, the SSL certificate will be set up automatically in case you have selected this attribute in the wizard throughout your order. This way, you will not have to do anything manually since our system will do the necessary and your new certificate will be active shortly after that. Needless to say, if you prefer to use another SSL vendor, you can still use the CSR that you've created using your account.
