SSL & Our Business Application - When writing the final version of our Application we decided to do something a bit odd according to industry standards and that was to have our entire business application run under the SSL certificate instead of just the shopping cart. After researching it, the decision seemed simple; more security for us and those using our system. Below is a picture of the application running under SSL. Below the picture is more information regarding SSL and how it works. Video Demo Click here!

What is SSL? - SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is the standard security technology for establishing an encrypted link between a web server and a browser. This link ensures that all data passed between the web server and browsers remain private and integral. SSL is an industry standard and is used by millions of websites in the protection of their online transactions with their customers. Why should I care about SSL? - Why should any of this matter? Because securely (and effectively) transmitting data over open communications channels is a critical component to maintaining a modern IT system, SSL is a powerful protocol to help achieve that security, and enabling SSL in an Integrated Solutions Console environment can be a complex and challenging task. Why challenging? Data security in a Web-based application environment such as an Integrated Solutions Console environment can seem a bit vague to first-timers because IT security itself is a broad topic -- it covers many different aspects in open communication networks. Will I need to do anything during setup for this? - The only thing you will have to do different is install our certificate during the Application setup process. It does not affect whether or not you can use the application. It is for the browser not your computer.
