If you need to use an SSL Certificate on your site, to protect the payment and login data which users post, you will need a Certificate Signing Request, or CSR. The Request contains all the info for the entity that will use the SSL in an encoded form, such as the exact web address for the website, the Business/Organization name, physical and e-mail address. It should be submitted to a vendor, or Certificate Authority, which reviews the posted details and depending on it, gives the SSL certificate. The actual SSL installation requires four different bits of code - the certificate, the CSR, a unique private key that is generated alongside the CSR and the SSL vendor private key. An Internet site which has an SSL installed can be opened with https:// instead of the usual http:// and the information submitted for the CSR can be viewed in standard text format via an Internet browser.
