SSL Certificate

An SSL certificate, short for Secure Sockets Layer certificate, is a digital certificate that provides secure and encrypted communication between a website and its visitors. It ensures that sensitive information such as credit card details, login credentials, and personal data are transmitted securely, protecting them from being intercepted or tampered with by hackers. SSL certificates are essential for websites that handle sensitive information or engage in e-commerce transactions, as they establish trust and credibility with users by displaying the padlock symbol and “https” in the website URL.
