If you wish to use an SSL Certificate on your site, to protect the payment and login information that users upload, you'll need a Certificate Signing Request, or CSR. The Request contains all the information related to the entity which will use the SSL in an encoded form, such as the exact website address for the site, the Business/Organization name, physical and e-mail address. It has to be submitted to a service provider, or Certificate Authority, which reviews the provided info and based on it, issues the SSL certificate. The actual SSL set up requires four bits of code - the certificate, the CSR, a special private key which is generated along with the CSR and the SSL vendor private key. A website which has an SSL installed can be opened with https:// instead of the usual http:// and the info submitted for the CSR can be viewed in standard text format through an Internet browser.

SSL Certificate Generator in Shared Web Hosting

We provide SSL certificates in addition to our shared web hosting plans, so if you'd like to protect the data your visitors upload, you will be able to get one right from the Hepsia Control Panel. With our SSL wizard, you are able to type in the company/personal details that you want to be associated with the certificate and our system will generate the CSR along with a special private key. You will get an email from our vendor to confirm the order and next, the SSL certificate will be installed automatically in case you have selected this attribute in the wizard during your order. In this way, you will not have to do anything at all manually because our system will do the required and your brand new certificate will be active quickly after that. Needless to say, should you prefer to use a different SSL service provider, you can still use the CSR that you have generated using your account.

SSL Certificate Generator in Semi-dedicated Hosting

In case you create a web store or you have some login form and your website is hosted in a semi-dedicated server account on our cloud hosting platform, you might want to use an SSL certificate. Since we offer SSLs together with our web hosting services, you will be able to acquire a new certificate from the same Hepsia Control Panel where you control your site content. All that you will need to do is to enter the necessary data - personal and business. Since we have an auto-installer, our system will create the Certificate Signing Request as well as the Private Key, then keep track of the SSL status with our vendor and set up everything for you. The sole action required on your end will be to confirm the certificate order by email. In case you already have an alternative vendor, you can only get a CSR and then send it to them, so they can give you an SSL which you can install inside your account with us.
