What is SSL?

SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is the standard security technology for establishing an encrypted link between a web server and a browser. This link ensures that all data passed between the web server and browsers remain private and integral.

How does SSL work?

(1) SSL encrypts sensitive information in online transactions

(2) Each SSL certificate is created for a single website

(3) A reputable authority authenticates the website owner before granting an SSL certificate

What happens between the web browser and server with SSL?

  • A browser attempts to connect to a web site secured with SSL. The browser requests that the web server identify itself.
  • The server sends the browser a copy of its SSL certificate.
  • The browser checks whether it trusts the SSL certificate. If so, it sends a message to the server.
  • The server sends back a digitally signed acknowledgement to start an SSL encrypted session.
  • Encrypted data is shared between the browser and the server.
