What is an SSL Certificate?When accepting orders online it is important to encrypt the data transmission between your web-site and your customer, with an SSL certificate. This will give your customers confidence to enter sensitive information online via your web site. It is also a requirement by merchant services providers that you use provide a secure site using an SSL certificate when accepting credit card payments online.
SSL, better known as Secure Sockets Layer, is the standard security technology for creating an encrypted link between a web server (our hosting) and a browser (you and your customers). This link ensures that all data passed between the web server and browser remain private and integral.
SSL is an industry standard and is used by millions of websites in the protection of their online transactions with their customers. In order to be able to generate an SSL link, a web server requires an SSL Certificate.
We provide GeoTrust SSL certificates, the world's second largest digital certificate provider. This ensures the certificates you purchase through MD are high quality, certified and world class. Our prices are also more affordable than buying from GeoTrust direct, so you save money.
A secure site (SSL certificate) is always shown by the secure pad lock icon shown in your web browser. You can treat the web site as 100% secure if you are not alerted to any security warnings by your web browser when you load a secure page, as this means the certificate is valid and has been issued by a trusting authority. Remember: A secure web site does not guarantee the information you entered is safe - It is up to the web site owner to encrypt and store your information. Be sure to check how the web site owner will handle and store your information. The SSL certificate ensures the connection is safe and secure,
