What is SSL security?


It stands for secure socket layer that establishes the secure encrypted link between  web server and browser. All the data that is passed through this link will be secured. It is an industry standard that is followed by most of the website owners. Don’t think that you need to install something in your computer setup.We need SSL certificate in order to use SSL security. When you go for the SSL security you will have to complete number of question asked by web sever then your web server creates two cryptographic keys, public and private key. Then you have submit your CSR (Certificate  signing request) by encrypting it from private key. Then webserver will validate all the details of yours by CSR and allow you to use SSL.

If a website is using the SSL security then it is shown by the web browser with the help of icon. Might be you had seen a lock in the side of the web browser address bar. By the help of this icon we can analyse that which site is secure and which is insecure.
