Product Introduction
Overview of SSL Certificates
SSL certificates are a type of digital certificate, similar to an electronic version of a driver's license, passport, or business license. When configured on a server, they are also referred to as SSL server certificates.
An SSL certificate adheres to the SSL protocol and is issued by a trusted Certificate Authority (CA) after verifying the server's identity. It provides server authentication and data transmission encryption.
SSL certificates establish a secure communication channel between a client's browser and a web server using the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol. This protocol is designed to authenticate both users and servers, encrypt and obscure data in transit, and ensure data integrity during transmission.
Product Advantages
DNSIO's SSL certificate service partners with internationally renowned CA organizations and uses leading global internet encryption technologies to enhance website data security. It prevents data theft, tampering, and hijacking, improves search engine rankings, and ensures your brand's security and reliability.
The SSL certificate uses HTTPS encryption for app and web communications, preventing data theft or tampering during transmission and ensuring data integrity. It also helps prevent data hijacking and ad injection on web pages.
Websites using HTTPS encryption rank higher in search results than those using HTTP. SSL certificates can aid in SEO optimization, effectively improving website search rankings and enhancing brand image and visibility.
DNSIO's SSL certificates support all major browsers and mobile devices, ensuring that users receive correct security notifications from their browsers.
DNSIO supports bulk SSL certificate purchases and domain binding. Domains resolved by DNSIO can automatically validate through domain verification, support bulk export of various mainstream DNS CNAME verification formats, and bulk certificate downloads. SSL certificate application and validation take just 5-10 minutes for automatic issuance.
It meets the requirements for SSL certificate listings in WeChat Mini Programs, the App Store, and mobile app stores.
Application Scenarios
The application scenarios for this product include:
Increasing numbers of enterprises are deploying OA, CRM, and other business applications on the cloud to enjoy cloud computing's efficiency and convenience. Using SSL certificates for encryption can further enhance system security and ensure that sensitive information is not hijacked or tampered with.
Trustworthiness is the most crucial feature for government platforms. With increasing phishing fraud websites and information hijacking methods, government platform information security is under severe threat. Enabling authoritative SSL certificates can guarantee information security and website credibility.
Starting January 1, 2017, all apps on Apple’s App Store must support HTTPS secure connections. Apps not using HTTPS will be forcibly removed from the App Store.
API interfaces are essential for third-party websites to exchange information. API interface security is critical as it involves transmitting important data and operational commands. Using SSL certificates can encrypt this information transmission, effectively preventing hijacking or tampering of the data.
Product Features
Data Encryption: SSL certificates establish an encrypted channel between the user's browser and the website server, ensuring the security of data during transmission and preventing data theft or tampering. This encryption mechanism protects sensitive information such as login credentials, banking information, and personal data from being stolen and misused.
Identity Authentication: SSL certificates verify a website's identity. When users visit an encrypted website, the site sends a certificate containing its public key and digital signature to the browser. The browser uses the digital signature to validate the certificate's authenticity and determine if it can trust the site. This authentication mechanism prevents users from falling victim to phishing websites and ensures a secure connection with legitimate sites.
Integrity Protection: SSL certificates also protect data integrity. Before establishing a secure connection, the website uses the SSL certificate to hash the data and attach the hash value to the transmitted data. The recipient’s browser performs the same hash operation on the received data and compares the result with the received hash value to ensure the data has not been altered during transmission. This integrity protection mechanism prevents data tampering by hackers, increasing the website’s reliability and user trust.
Enhanced Website Security: Deploying an SSL certificate allows verification of the SSL certificate information in HTTPS, confirming the website’s true identity and helping users identify the correct website. This avoids users falling prey to counterfeit sites. SSL encryption allows secure transmission of information, blocking any potential third-party access or unnecessary hacker attacks.
