If you need to use an SSL Certificate for your site, in order to protect the payment and login data which users submit, you'll need a Certificate Signing Request, also known as CSR. The Request contains all the info about the entity which will use the SSL in an encoded form, for example the exact website address for the website, the Business/Organization name, physical and email address. It needs to be sent to a service provider, or Certificate Authority, which reviews the posted info and based on it, gives the SSL certificate. The SSL installation requires 4 bits of code - the certificate, the CSR, a specific private key that's generated together with the CSR and the SSL vendor private key. A website which has an SSL installed can be opened with https:// rather than the usual http:// and the info submitted for the CSR can be viewed in standard text format from an Internet browser.

SSL Certificate Generator in Cloud Website Hosting

If you host a website in a cloud website hosting account ordered from our company and its visitors submit sensitive data, you'll be able to get an SSL certificate for it straight from your hosting Control Panel and with no more than a couple of clicks. We have an easy-to-work-with order wizard, thus you only need to choose the domain/subdomain and enter the needed details for your Certificate Signing Request. You'll receive an e-mail message to approve the order and soon after the SSL is issued, it'll be installed automatically by our system, so you will not need to deal with any codes or settings. If you wish to use the services of another Certificate Authority, you can only acquire a CSR through your Control Panel and then copy the code that you are required to submit for the SSL. You will find the private key generated along with the CSR in the very same section.
