Why is it essential to have robust SSL protection for your website?

The Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a protocol developed to safeguard the transmission of information over the internet. An SSL certificate serves as a digital “passport” that allows data to travel securely between a web server and a browser. This certificate confirms the identity of the website and ensures that all data transmitted is encrypted.

Certificates Tailored for eCommerce Websites

For eCommerce platforms, robust security isn’t just a preference—it’s a necessity. Ensuring top-tier validation for your SSL Certificate is crucial to instill maximum confidence.

The Extended Validation (EV) SSL not only provides superior encryption but also displays the green padlock alongside your company’s name. The rigorous validation surpasses other types, ensuring your site is recognised as a genuine business.

These measures let your customers shop with complete assurance, protecting their data every step of the way.

Certificates for Extensive Subdomain Coverage

Operating several subdomains within your hosting package? A Wildcard SSL is the ideal choice, permitting you to secure unlimited subdomains and extend that protection to new ones you establish.

Its validation mirrors Domain Validated SSLs but offers consolidated coverage across all subdomains. For eCommerce spanning multiple subdomains, an EV SSL may be more suitable.

Benefit from swift deployment and verification while ensuring comprehensive coverage under a single certificate.
