SSL stands for "Secure Sockets Layer". In layman’s terms, SSL means secure communications between a web surfer and a web site. With today’s evolving Internet, the need for secure commerce is higher than ever. If you intend to take orders or deal with sensitive information (customer's credit card, sensitive company/client communication, etc...) you really should consider SSL.

 

With an SSL certificate, all communications between your customers and your web server are encrypted. Encryption is a means of scrambling data, preventing anyone from seeing your valuable data. Data encryption is a good baseline of defense against those who would cause harm to your business.

 

Very Important: An SSL certificate is still only one part of a true secure ecommerce plan. There is one security issue that usually goes unaddressed by most hosting companies. The problem occurs when the shopping cart transmits the results of the order, along with the client's credit card and personal information, over the Internet, in the clear, to the merchant. This means that the personal and credit card information is being transmitted using an unsecure email transport. The only two ways around this problem is to use a very complex email encryption program such as "PGP (Pretty Good Privacy)"; however, this is very involved to implement from a merchant's standpoint. The other option is to post the client's credit card information to a file on a secure server, that can be retrieved later, securely using a secure Internet browser. Our company has addressed this security issue by providing you with a FREE and professional secure ecommerce shopping cart that emails you a notification that you have received an order.  The email contains a secure link to retrieve the client's personal and credit card information using a secure browser from the secure server to your computer, which is also password protected.

 

Aside from protecting your valuable data, it reasserts your customer's confidence in your identity and reliability. From a customer's perspective, wouldn't you rather do business with a company who has demonstrated a willingness to truly and totally protect your information and privacy?
