Hi,<br />
just a few general(ish) question I was hoping some one could answer regarding security certificates used on web sites... <br />
<br />
What is the process for getting a certificate for a comercial website<br />
<br />
What information (if any) is provided to the certificate issuer when someone on the web enters teh site for purchases, transactions etc...<br />
<br />
When some one enters the site what is the process that happens in regard to the certificate (i.e. how is a certificate &quot;verified as being trustable&quot;)<br />
<br />
any other information would be appreciated...<br />
<br />
this is due to me hunting around on google (for a bit) but need to get a specific answer to these Q's but not enough time to hunt...<br />
<br />
Cheers<br />
M<br />

Process for security certificates

Security is the protection of information systems from theft or damage to the hardware, the software, and the information on them, as well as from disruption or misdirection of the services they provide. The main goal of security is protecting assets, and an asset is anything of value and worthy of protection.  Information Security is a discipline of protecting information assets from threats through safeguards to achieve the objectives of confidentiality, integrity, and availability or CIA for short. On the other hand, disclosure, alteration, and disruption (DAD) compromise the security objectives.
