SSL Certificates
SSL (Secure Socket Layer) is a protocol that enables a Web browser and a Web server to communicate securely. Web pages that have SSL security display a padlock at the bottom of the browser. The Web address will also change from "http" to "https". SSL Security ensures that your customers' ordering process is completely secure and their sensitive information protected. Icene offers a range of SSL Certificates to suit different levels of security.
