If you intend to use an SSL Certificate for your website, so as to protect the payment and login info which users submit, you'll need a Certificate Signing Request, also known as CSR. The Request contains all the information related to the entity that will use the SSL in an encrypted form, such as the exact website address for the site, the Business/Organization name, physical and e-mail address. It should be sent to a vendor, or Certificate Authority, which reviews the submitted data and based on it, issues the SSL certificate. The actual SSL set up requires 4 bits of code - the certificate, the CSR, a specific private key which is generated along with the CSR and the SSL vendor private key. A website that has an SSL installed can be loaded with https:// rather than the usual http:// and the information submitted for the CSR will be viewed in standard text format from a web browser.
