If you would like to use an SSL Certificate on your site, in order to protect the payment and login information that users send, you will need a Certificate Signing Request, or CSR. The Request contains all the info related to the entity which will use the SSL in an encrypted form, for instance the exact web address for the site, the Business/Organization name, physical and e-mail address. It has to be sent to a vendor, or Certificate Authority, which reviews the posted information and based on it, issues the SSL certificate. The actual SSL installation requires 4 bits of code - the certificate, the CSR, a unique private key that is generated along with the CSR and the SSL vendor private key. An Internet site which has an SSL installed can be loaded with https:// instead of the usual http:// and the information submitted for the CSR will be viewed in standard text format via a web browser.
SSL Certificate Generator in Hosting
If you host a website in a hosting account acquired through our company and its users upload private info, you can obtain an SSL certificate for it directly through your website hosting Control Panel and with just a couple of clicks. We have an easy-to-work-with order wizard, which means that you only need to select the domain/subdomain and type in the required info for your Certificate Signing Request. You will receive an email to approve the order and soon after the SSL is issued, it'll be set up automatically by our system, so you will not have to deal with any codes or settings. If you'd like to use the services of another Certificate Authority, you can only obtain a CSR using your Control Panel then copy the code that you need to submit for the SSL. You'll find the private key generated along with the CSR in the same section.
SSL Certificate Generator in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our semi-dedicated server accounts feature a Certificate Signing Request generator along with an SSL set up wizard, so if you'd like to receive a certificate for any site that you host on our servers, you'll be able to do it in just a couple of min. Once you sign in to the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, which is provided with all the semi-dedicated accounts, you can head to the SSL Certificates section and type in your personal and business info. Our system will create the CSR, so that you will have 2 options - if you would like to obtain the certificate through our company, you can process with the order in the exact same section and our system will install the SSL automatically as soon as it was issued, or you can save the CSR on your PC and then use it to obtain an SSL via a different seller.
