In case you would like to use an SSL Certificate on your website, in order to protect the payment and login data which users upload, you'll need a Certificate Signing Request, or CSR. The Request contains all the info related to 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 e-mail address. It needs to be sent to a service provider, or Certificate Authority, which reviews the provided info and depending on it, gives the SSL certificate. The SSL installation requires four different bits of code - the certificate, the CSR, a unique private key that is generated alongside the CSR and the SSL vendor private key. A website that has an SSL installed can be loaded with https:// instead of the usual http:// and the information submitted for the CSR can be viewed in standard text format from a web browser.
