Digital certificates are electronic files that are used to identify people and resources over networks such as the Internet. Digital certificates also enable secure, confidential communication between two parties using encryption.

Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology is a security protocol that is today’s de-facto standard for securing communications and transactions across the Internet. SSL has been implemented in all major browsers and Web servers, and as such, plays a major role in today’s e-commerce and e-business activities on the Web.

Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology protects transactions between your Web site and visitors. The protocol uses a third party, a Certificate Authority (CA), to identify one end or both end of the transactions. This is in short how it works.

When do I need SSL Certificates ?

If you accept or process online orders and process credit cards information
If you offer a login or sign in on your site
If you are processing sensitive data or information such as address, birth date, license, or ID numbers
If you need to comply with privacy and security requirements.
If you need to secure email server(POP, IMAP, SMTP), vpn server, ftp server, control panels, webmail or any other web applications
If you wish to prove trust to your customers, whenever or whatever your website deals with.

How do SSL Certificates work ?

A browser requests a secure page (usually https://)
Once secure transaction is initiated. The web server sends its public key with its certificate.
The browser checks that the certificate was issued by a trusted party (usually a trusted CA such as GlobeSSL), that the certificate is still valid and that the certificate is related to the site contacted.
The browser then uses the public key, to encrypt a random symmetric encryption key and sends it to the server with the encrypted URL required as well as other encrypted http data.
The web server decrypts the symmetric encryption key using its private key and uses the symmetric key to decrypt the URL and http data.
The web server sends back the requested html document and http data encrypted with the symmetric key.
The browser decrypts the http data and html document using the symmetric key and displays the information.
