Why do I need an SSL certificate?

Even if the user correctly entered your website's domain name, it can be substituted by hackers.

SSL certificates rule out such events: by checking the certificate, the user can be sure that the domain is tied to the real website and not its fake copy.

Furthermore, SSL certificates allow users to check who the owner of the website is. It means that the users can be sure that they are visiting the website of the actual company and not its clone's website.

Another important feature of SSL certificates is the internet connection encryption. Encrypted connection is required to prevent potential theft of confidential data transferred via the internet.
