WHY YOU SHOULD MOVE YOUR WEBSITE TO HTTPS PROTOCOL
When a user accesses the Internet from a browser to a certain website, requests through the Internet provider and many other intermediate providers and devices are transmitted through a conventional HTTP protocol, in which both the client’s request and the server’s response are presented in a clear form. If an intruder penetrates into this chain, he will have an opportunity to see the transferred data. In certain cases, when confidential information, such as passwords or credit card data is transferred, it is just necessary to provide the additional security measures to prevent information disclosure!
So SSL and TLS cryptographic protocols have been developed to provide additional security measures, which are used in https connections to encrypt and protect data transmission from reading by unauthorized persons or software and hardware systems.
HTTPS protocol allows to avoid fraud. For banks, payment systems and online stores, the use of the secure data transfer protocol is the guarantor of the protection of confidential data on passwords, credit cards, orders and remittances.
Before ordering the certificate, please, read the instructions on moving your website to https protocol carefully, perhaps you will need to make a number of improvements on your website before you install the certificate! Otherwise, the certificate will not be recognized by browsers.
