In case you wish to use an SSL Certificate on your site, to protect the payment and login information which users submit, you'll need a Certificate Signing Request, or CSR. The Request contains all the information about the entity that will use the SSL in an encoded form, for example the exact web address for the site, the Business/Organization name, physical and email address. It needs to be sent to a vendor, or Certificate Authority, which reviews the posted info and based on it, gives the SSL certificate. The SSL set up requires 4 bits of code - the certificate, the CSR, a unique private key that is generated together with the CSR and the SSL vendor private key. An Internet site that has an SSL installed can be loaded with https:// instead of the usual http:// and the info submitted for the CSR will be viewed in standard text format through an Internet browser.
