A Certificate Signing Request (CSR) is needed in case you wish to have an SSL certificate that will encode all of the payment and account information which are exchanged between your website and its clients. The CSR contains information about the website and its owner in Base64-encoded form - web address, physical address plus e-mail, company name and unit, and the like. Based on this code, a licensed SSL vendor gives you the certificate, that's digitally signed with the vendor's private key so as to identify that they're a reliable issuer. During the CSR generation, a unique private key is also created and the set up of the SSL involves all 4 codes - both the keys, the certificate along with the CSR. After that, you'll be able to use a URL beginning with https:// for your website instead of http:// and your website visitors will be able to view the information that you have provided for the CSR via their web browsers.

SSL Certificate Generator in Hosting

In case you host a website in a Linux hosting from our company and you need to get an SSL certificate for it, you can do that with only a couple of clicks inside your Hepsia Control Panel. Using our intuitive SSL order wizard, you will be able to enter and update the contact info that you'd like to be used for your certificate and after that select the auto-configuration feature that we've created so that we can make things a lot less difficult - when you approve the SSL request by clicking on the link that you will receive through e-mail after you send your order, our system will install everything on your behalf, so you won't be required to do anything manually at any moment. If you'd like to receive your certificate somewhere else, you are able to employ our CSR generation tool and upload the Request code to the other vendor. A private key connected with the CSR will also be created and available in the very same section of your account.

SSL Certificate Generator in Semi-dedicated Hosting

The Hepsia website hosting Control Panel that comes with our semi-dedicated server accounts has a built-in SSL certificate request generator, so in case you host a site that you would like to secure, you're able to acquire a new SSL with several clicks. You'll just have to enter the details for your certificate if it's not the same as the one you have in the account and our system will create the Certificate Signing Request in addition to the private key associated with it. If you decide to obtain the SSL through our company, you only need to choose the auto-configuration option during the order and our system will do the necessary, so you will not need to install the certificate manually. In the event that you plan to acquire the SSL from a different company, you just have to save the CSR code. Subsequently you will need to set up the certificate, but if you've never done this before or you experience any issues, you can contact us and we will set up the SSL in a couple of minutes.
