Secure Sockets Layer Certificate (SSL Certificate)
A Secure Sockets Layer certificate (SSL certificate) is a small data file installed on a web server that allows for a secure, encrypted connection between the server and a web browser. This digital certificate allows a website to implement the SSL encryption-based security protocol. It also authenticates the site's identity, secures online transactions performed through it and keeps user information secure and private.
