SSL certificate are used to encrypt communication between a server and clients that are communicating with it. This ensures protection of sensitive information along the way, from any person attempting to snoop on the data, and also gives clients confidence that your server is genuine.
To install an SSL certificate, you first need to purchase it from companies that provide the same, such as TrueHost Kenya. You also need to have a domain where you intend to use the SSL, which can also be bought from TrueHost Kenya. Once bought, the next step is to install the certificate.
The SSL certificate should be installed in the server where your domain is. The installation procedure is different for different types of servers, and each installation instruction is usually given depending on the type of server running.
