If you'd like to use an SSL Certificate on your site, to protect the payment and login info which users upload, you will need a Certificate Signing Request, also known as CSR. The Request contains all the information about the entity that will use the SSL in an encoded form, such as the exact web address for the site, the Business/Organization name, physical and e-mail address. It has to be sent to a service provider, or Certificate Authority, which reviews the provided information and depending on it, gives the SSL certificate. The SSL installation requires four different bits of code - the certificate, the CSR, a specific private key which is generated together with the CSR and the SSL vendor private key. A website that has an SSL installed can be loaded with https:// rather than the usual http:// and the info submitted for the CSR will be viewed in standard text format through an Internet browser.

SSL Certificate Generator in Shared Web Hosting

We offer SSL certificates in addition to our shared web hosting plans, so if you wish to secure the info your visitors upload, you are able to get one directly from the Hepsia Control Panel. Using our SSL wizard, you are able to type in the company/personal details that you need to be associated with the certificate and our system will create the CSR as well as a specific private key. You'll receive an e-mail from our supplier in order to verify the order and next, the SSL certificate will be set up automatically if you have selected this feature in the wizard during your order. In this way, you won't have to do anything manually because our system will do the required and your unique certificate will be active quickly after that. Of course, if you wish to use a different SSL service provider, you can still use the CSR that you've generated from your account.
