A Certificate Signing Request (CSR) is needed when you would like to have an SSL certificate that will encode all of the payment and account details which will be exchanged between your site and its customers. The CSR contains information about the website as well as its owner in Base64-encoded form - website address, physical address as well as e-mail, company name and unit, etcetera. Based upon this code, a registered SSL vendor gives you the certificate, which is digitally signed with the vendor's private key so as to show that they're a trusted issuer. At the time of the CSR generation, a unique private key is also generated and the set up of the SSL involves all of the 4 codes - the two keys, the certificate along with the CSR. Next, you can use a URL that begins with https:// for your website rather than http:// and the website visitors can view the info that you've provided for the CSR via their web browsers.
SSL Certificate Generator in Hosting
In case you host a site in a hosting account ordered through our company and its users upload sensitive data, you can get an SSL certificate for it straight through your hosting Control Panel and with just a few clicks. We have an easy-to-work-with order wizard, thus you only have to select the domain/subdomain and type in the necessary info for your Certificate Signing Request. You will receive an e-mail to approve your order and shortly after the SSL is issued, it'll be installed automatically by our system, so you will not need to deal with any codes or settings. If you want to use the services of some other Certificate Authority, you can only create a CSR from your Control Panel then copy the code that you are required to submit for the SSL. You will find the private key generated along with the CSR in the same section.
