One of the most common website questions I hear is: How do I know my website is secure\u2014for me and for my customers?
What is an SSL certificate? SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is a protocol for establishing authenticated and encrypted communication between networked computers.
How does an SSL certificate make my website more secure? This secret handshake happens between your web browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, etc.) and your web server (the computer where your website files live).
What does having an SSL certificate say about your website?
Having an SSL certificate says that your site can be trusted by ensuring:
\u2714 Your site is authentic. (The secret handshake was completed.)
\u2714 Your site has integrity. (The secret handshake wasn\u2019t altered by a third-party hand-slap fest.)
\u2714 Your site is encrypted. (All chit-chat is now bound by website/server confidentiality.)
How do I get an SSL certificate?
Fortunately for you and for your website, there are oodles of options (and costs) for obtaining an SSL certificate.
