A Certificate Signing Request (CSR) is required in case you wish to acquire an SSL certificate which will encrypt all of the payment and account info which will be exchanged between your site and its users. The CSR contains info about the website and its owner in Base64-encoded form - website address, physical address and email, company name and unit, and the like. Based on this code, a registered SSL vendor gives you the certificate, which is digitally signed with the vendor's private key in order to identify that they are a trusted issuer. During the CSR generation, a unique private key is also generated and the set up of the SSL involves all of the four codes - the two keys, the certificate along with the CSR. After that, you will be able to use a URL that starts with https:// for your website instead of http:// and your website visitors will be able to view the info that you've provided for the CSR through their Internet browsers.

SSL Certificate Generator in Shared Hosting

If you host a website in a shared hosting package from us and you need to get an SSL certificate for it, you can do that with only a couple of clicks in your Hepsia Control Panel. Using our user-friendly SSL order wizard, you can enter and update the contact information that you'd like to be used for the certificate and then pick the auto-configuration attribute that we've released in order to make things even easier - as soon as you approve the SSL request by clicking on the link that you will receive via e-mail after you submit your order, our system will set up everything on your behalf, so you will not need to do anything manually at any moment. If you want to get your certificate elsewhere, you are able to employ our CSR generation instrument and submit the Request code to an alternative service provider. A private key linked to the CSR will also be generated and available in the very same section of your account.

SSL Certificate Generator in Semi-dedicated Hosting

The Hepsia web hosting Control Panel that comes with our semi-dedicated server accounts has an inbuilt SSL certificate request generator, so if you host a site that you wish to secure, you will be able to order a new SSL with a few clicks. You'll just need to enter the information for your certificate when it's different from the one you have in your account and our system will create the Certificate Signing Request along with the private key associated with it. If you decide to purchase the SSL from our company, you just have to select the auto-configuration option during the order and our system will do the necessary, so you will not have to set up the certificate manually. In the event that you want to obtain the SSL from a different company, you only need to save the CSR code. Subsequently you'll need to set up your certificate, but if you haven't done this before or you have any kind of issues, you can get in touch with us and we'll set up the SSL in a few minutes.
