Why Does The Site Need an SSL Certification?

Security should always be a high concern for your
website, but do you need an SSL certificate?
  • A secure Sockets layer (SSL) is the process of
    protecting the data which travels around the
    internet, so prevent hackers and bots from
    accessing sensitive information online. Private
    information like credit card details goes through
    the different servers and this is where the
    proper network security and encryption is needed
    to prevent the hackers from intercepting data.
  • The rule of thumb is that you are responsible for
    protecting your business and clients private and
    sensitive information like financial records,
    password log-ins, identify numbers, credit card
    details.

How SSL work
  • In the same way that we use to lock and unlock
    doors, SSL certificate use keys to validate and
    protect the sensitive information. The
    certificate signing request or CSR must also be
    created on the server. This creates a pair of
    public and private keys. The public key is used
    to encrypt the sensitive information, whilst the
    private key is used to decrypt the information
    provided and restore it to its original format so
    that it can be read.

Here are the top reasons why you need to get that
SSL certificate for your website
  • To Build Consumer Confidence
  • Secure Payment
  • Boost Your Google Ranking
  • Secured Password Log-Ins
  • PDPA Compliance

To Build Consumer Confidence
  • A website with the SSL certificate can be easily
    recognized when the URL starts with the https
    instead of http and where theres a green padlock
    symbol next to the URL bar. As such, you are
    sending a clear signal to your target customers
    that your business has the integrity and savvy to
    implement this additional level of protection for
    their private data.

2. Secure Payment
  • For the e-commerce sites, credit card details are
    often collected. In doing this, the customer is
    giving his full trust that this sensitive
    information will be transmitted securely. The SSL
    will serve as the security protocol for the
    payment transactions.

3. Boost Your Google Ranking
  • According to the Google, websites with an SSL
    certificate are given small ranking benefits on
    the Googles search engine results because they
    want to encourage all the website owners to
    switch from the HTTP to HTTPs, to promote web
    security. This means that when you acquire an SSL
    certificate for your website, this can help you
    boost your Search Rankings.

4. Secured Password Log-Ins
  • If your pages are password protected, then the
    SSL certificate is must on your website for you
    to secure the log-in details such as the username
    and password of your customers and to prevent
    hackers from hacking.

5. PDPA Compliance
  • Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) is a law that
    governs how businesses collect and use the
    personal data.

  • Having the SSL Certificate on your website will
    give your customers a sense of security that
    their private data are in safe hands. This is a
    big requirement when it comes to a website
    dealing with the sensitive information like the
    card details and other personal information about
    their customers. Securing this information with
    the SSL encryption (https) immediately combats
    any risk of unwanted sharing of your information.
    Privacy by Default is the new internet mantra.
