Summary

An SSL server certificate is the basis for encryption of a website by the operator. It is not only used for communication, but also guarantees secure authentication of a website. This prevents unauthorized recording of information as well as the faking of a false identity - a common procedure in so-called phishing attacks. For the visitor of a website, an SSL server certificate changes nothing, but creates a high level of security.
