SSL
What is SSL?
Secure Sockets Layer, SSL, is the standard security technology for creating an encrypted link between a web server and a browser. This link ensures that all data passed between the web server and browser remains private and integral. SSL is an industry standard and is used by hundreds of thousands of web sites in the protection of their online transactions with their customers. In order to be able to generate an SSL link, a web server requires an SSL Certificate.
The widespread use of SSL has invariably encouraged online commerce. As a result our Internet economy has come to depend on SSL as a security and trust infrastructure, but what does the little yellow padlock really mean to the user?
Since the SSL protocol was released by Netscape as a security technology in 1996, consumers have been educated to look for the SSL padlock before passing any critical details over the Internet. Technically, the SSL protocol provides an encrypted link between two parties, however in the eyes of the consumer, seeing the SSL padlock in their browser means:
- That they have a secure (encrypted) link with the website
- That the web site displaying the padlock is a valid and legitimate organization or an accountable legal entity
As well as ensuring that their details remain secure during a transaction, consumers also care whether the web site they are dealing with belongs to a legitimate business or organization. In order to solve the critical issue of identity assurance as well as information security on the Internet, the efforts of SSL providers (Certification Authorities), consumer magazines and industry bodies have rightly resulted in the SSL padlock becoming synonymous with trust and integrity - factors consumers associate with being legitimate.
