In case you need to use an SSL Certificate on your website, so as to protect the payment and login data which users upload, you will need a Certificate Signing Request, or CSR. The Request contains all the information related to the entity which will use the SSL in an encoded form, for example the exact web address for the site, the Business/Organization name, physical and email address. It should be submitted to a vendor, or Certificate Authority, which reviews the posted info and depending on it, issues the SSL certificate. The SSL installation requires 4 bits of code - the certificate, the CSR, a special private key which is generated together with the CSR and the SSL vendor private key. An Internet site which has an SSL installed can be opened with https:// rather than the usual http:// and the information submitted for the CSR can be viewed in standard text format from an Internet browser.
