What’s an SSL certificate and how does it work?

It starts with data encryption.
A SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) certificate helps build trust. It authenticates your website’s identity and enables an encrypted connection regardless of the browser customers are using.
Your site data is now protected.
With an SSL, all the data passing to and from your website is encrypted to help ensure privacy and prevent exposure to hackers and cyberattacks.
The padlock says it all.
Once your SSL connection is complete, look for the padlock and HTTPS next to your domain. That padlock states that your site data is protected, which could help promote trust and help improve your search ranking.
Customers shop with confidence.
The difference between a “secure” and a “not secure” website is about keeping site data protected which can help build customer trust.
