woekiewoekie Posted July 27, 2003 Posted July 27, 2003 I searched the forum for SSL what it actually is and all I found was how to configure it. But I want to know what SSL exactly is and the benefits My host provides an https directory and I made a simple index.html file secure. But there is no certificate. So questions are. Do you need a certificate? What is a certificate? Because I saw you can buy them in different flavours. e.g. for $20 transactions of for $1000. Does that mean that the transaction is insured or something and if yes who is insured? Just your basic type of questions about SSL, thanks in advance for the help
Guest Posted July 27, 2003 Posted July 27, 2003 Basicaly a SSL certificate in that all information (credit card # ... personnal information..etc) is encrypt between the customers and the server HTH The_Bear
