SSL stands for Secure Sockets Layer, is an encryption technology that creates a secure connection between your website’s server and your website visitor’s web browser.

This allows for information to be protected during transmission between the two. Its usually activated by the padlock and HTTPS protocol.

Its a vital component for a website if your accept credit card information and store it in a database so that you can process it using an offline POS machine.

Do you know any computer could intercept the transmission from your browser to the server on any website without SSL encryption?

This includes the transmission of credit card numbers, usernames and passwords, and other sensitive information. When your site is secured you’ll see that little lock in the left corner of your browser’s location bar, followed by the website URL beginning with HTTPS. Data that is sent using HTTPS provides three key layers of protection:

  • Authentication: Confirms visitors are on the right website, yours, and builds trust.
  • Data integrity: Customer data cannot be corrupted or modified.
  • Encryption: Visitor activity cannot be intercepted while browsing your website.

Online users are more sophisticated than they used to be and more informed. They now know how to look for the telltale signs that a website is secured. SSL encryption does just that.
