SSL, which stands for Secure Socket Layer, is an industry-standard way of making your Web service secure for the purpose of passing credit card numbers and other sensitive information across the Internet. SSL binds a person's or a computer's identity to a pair of electronic keys that can be used to encrypt and digitally "sign" information to prove its authenticity.
SSL requires the use of a Digital Certificate, also known as a Digital ID. SSL and Digital IDs together provide a complete security solution, assuring the identity of all parties involved in an online transaction.
You can purchase a personal Digital ID by contacting the Web.com Sales team at 1-800-214-1460.
