It's no secret that data, including: bank details, credit card numbers and other personal info transmitted via the internet, can sometimes be read by other people. We have all heard the harrowing stories about online identity theft and many of us know someone who has been affected by it. To keep sensitive information more secure, a special internet protocol, Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) was developed.

SSL works by sending and receiving encrypted data to/from the website, and providing assurance of identification of the parties involved. In this way the SSL keeps malicious outsiders from decrypting sensitive information. You can recognize an SSL website because its web address is prefixed by "https:" instead of "http:"

To use SSL safely on your site, you are required to purchase an SSL certificate which is only valid with your website's domain name. This assures your e-commerce customers that they are downloading data from your actual server, as it alone has the keys to encrypt/decrypt that data.

You can purchase any of the security certificates below; we will contact you to organise your certificate signing request (CSR). Installation normally takes under one hour during business hours.

Our Secure SSL certificates are compatible with 99% of all browsers, making them equally as trusted as expensive certificates from Verisign and Thawte.
