What is SSL?
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is a cryptographic protocol used to secure communication, ecommerce and browsing. SSL connections use port 443 by default and display URLs that begin with "HTTPS://". Browsers indicate secure connections through the utionyellow padlock and green address bar.
Data sent through a browser using HTTPS is encrypted and secure from eavesdroppers. Site owners, such as online retailers, should utilize SSL to protect online transactions and to increase conversions. Webservers activate SSL by obtaining an SSL Certificate from a trusted Certificate Authority like GlobalSign.
GlobalSign (a GMO Internet Inc group company) offers online security services & has been a trusted root Certificate Authority since 1996. GlobalSign Digital Certificates are trusted by all browsers & mobile devices & include SSL Certificates, Extended Validation SSL, Website Malware Detection, Code Signing, Adobe CDS (Certified Document Services), Microsoft Office Document Signing, SMIME Secure Email, Data Privacy & Encryption, Strong Authentication, PKI & Digital Signatures & Certificate Authority root signing for Microsoft Certificate Services, EJBCA & more.
