SECURE ORDERING
www.RuthHoganPoulsen.com uses Paypal for a secure transaction service.
Paypal has an SSL "Secure Sockets Layer" certificate.
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology protects Web sites & customers and makes it easy for your Web site customer to trust you in three essential ways:
- An SSL Certificate enables encryption of sensitive information during online transactions.
- Each SSL Certificate contains unique, authenticated information about the certificate owner.
- A Certificate Authority verifies the identity of the certificate owner when it is issued.
You need SSL if...
- you have an online store or accept online orders and credit cards
- you offer a login or sign in on your site
- you process sensitive data such as address, birth date, license, or ID numbers
- you need to comply with privacy and security requirements
- you value privacy and expect others to trust you.
How Encryption Works
Imagine sending mail through the postal system in a clear envelope. Anyone with access to it can see the data. If it looks valuable, they might take it or change it. An SSL Certificate establishes a private communication channel enabling encryption of the data during transmission. Encryption scrambles the data, essentially creating an envelope for message privacy.
Each SSL Certificate consists of a public key and a private key. The public key is used to encrypt information and the private key is used to decipher it. When a Web browser points to a secured domain, a Secure Sockets Layer handshake authenticates the server (Web site) and the client (Web browser). An encryption method is established with a unique session key and secure transmission can begin. True 128-bit SSL Certificates enable every site visitor to experience the strongest SSL encryption available to them.
