A Certificate Signing Request (CSR) is needed in case you would like to acquire an SSL certificate that will encrypt all of the payment and account details that are exchanged between your site and its users. The CSR contains information about the site plus its owner in Base64-encoded form - website address, physical address along with email, company name and unit, etcetera. Based upon this code, a licensed SSL vendor issues the certificate, that's digitally signed with the vendor's private key in order to recognize that they are a dependable issuer. At the time of the CSR generation, a unique private key is also generated and the set up of the SSL involves all of the 4 codes - the two keys, the certificate and the CSR. After that, you'll be able to use a URL that begins with https:// for your site instead of http:// and the website visitors can view the info that you have provided for the CSR via their web browsers.
