• Why would a Website need Security?
• Data can be intercepted while traveling across the internet. If your Website deals with sensitive information, payments, credit card numbers, addresses, etc, your site should encrypt your data with a SSL Certificate to keep that data safe. Without a SSL Certificate, someone could use your Website to steal sensitive information.
• What Security can I get for my Website?
• MonsterWeb offers several types of SSL Certificates from four reputable SSL Certificate companies. Different certificates offer different levels of security and validation. Visit our SSL Certificates Comparison Chart page for more info.
• Why do I need a Dedicated IP Address for my SSL Certificate?
• SSL Certificates are assigned to an IP Address. Your site must have it's own unique dedicated IP Address for an SSL Certificate to function on your Website.
• What does "SSL" stand for?
• SSL stands for Secure Socket Layer. A Secure Socket Layer allows private information, such as payment information and identities, to be transmitted over the Internet.
