What is an SSL certificate and why do I need one?

An SSL certificate is a digital identity for a website that proves that it is safe for users. It encrypts information that the user enters, such as a bank card number, personal information and passwords.

It is easy to check the presence of an SSL certificate: in the address bar of the site you will see a closed lock icon ? by clicking on which the inscription "Secure connection" will appear.

In addition, sites protected by an SSL certificate occupy leading positions in the search engines Google and Yandex, which rank higher sites that work over a secure connection.

Visit only secure sites!
