Do I need an SSL certificate?

SSL certificate is a must if you accept payments on your website or ask your customers to provide their personal data — username, password, address, and other information.

The main task of SSL is to transmit the confidential information on the internet in encrypted form so that only the recipient could read it. All the data you send over the network is transmitted from one computer to another until it finally reaches the destination server. Each of these computers on the route can see your credit card number, username, password and other personal data unless those are encrypted with an SSL certificate. This will protect you and your customers from cyber-attack and identity theft.
