Why You Need a Sectigo SSL Certificate
A Sectigo SSL Certificate encrypts Ecommerce Transactions and Logins submitted on your website to prevent hackers from hijacking data as it is being processed.
Visitors to your website feel more secure visiting websites that take their security seriously. Insecure websites will have a higher bounce rate (visitors will quickly leave).
If you don't have an SSL Certificate, web browser will flash an insecure notification to all of your visitors. Although there is no confirmation from search engines, rumor has it that SSL also helps rankings.
The Purpose of an SSL Certificate
An SSL (Secure Socket Layering) certificate is responsible for encrypting any submitted data on your website. Examples of what the SSL Certificate encrypts includes 1) The information you enter to login to your website admin area, 2) When a customer places an order on your website, their credit card details and other sensitive information is encrypted and 3) When a visitor provides their information to a contact form that you have on your website, that data is encrypted after they click submit.
Taking website encryption seriously is a must in todays world. Over the years, the industry has made many changes to make users more aware of encryption and to help push the standard of website encryption further along.
Web Browsers now default to an HTTPS redirect so if you don't have an SSL Certificate, your visitors are going to see an Insecure Website Warning that will ask your visitor if they want to continue to visit your website or leave. Web browsers also display a padlock if the website has a valid SSL Certificate.
The duration of an SSL Certificate's validity has also been drastically reduced. In years past, you could purchase a certificate for as long as 5 years and only have to install it once in that time period. Now, you can still purchase an SSL Certificate for 5 years but it needs to be reissued once every 398 days to remain valid and trusted. This change has been made to reduce the changes of your Private Key becoming compromised. Each time the certificate is re issued, a new Private Key needs to be provided.
