Australian SSL Certificates

 Encryption: SSL encrypts the data transferred between a user’s browser and a website, helping protect sensitive information like credit card numbers, passwords, and personal data from being intercepted.

Security: It guards against cyber threats and enhances the overall security of online communications.

Trust: Displaying the padlock icon and “https://” in the URL builds user trust, as visitors know their connection is secure and that the website is authentic.

SEO Benefits: Search engines like Google prioritise websites using SSL, which can improve search rankings and visibility.

Compliance: It helps businesses comply with industry standards and regulations that require secure handling of user data.

Yes certainly. If you do not wish to handle the SSL Installation once your certificate has been issued, just select the relevant option on checkout and for only $25 the Fluccs team will handle installation for you.

E-commerce sites: Any site that handles online transactions or collects payment information.

Login pages: Websites that require users to log in, such as banking, social media, or email services.

Forms with personal information: Sites that collect sensitive information, including contact forms, registration forms, or surveys.

Health and financial services: Websites providing medical, legal, or financial advice and services that deal with personal and confidential information.

Any public-facing website: Even informational sites can benefit from SSL, as it enhances security and user trust.

In general, any website that deals with user data or sensitive information should implement SSL.

A wildcard SSL certificate is a type of SSL certificate that secures a primary domain and all its subdomains using a single certificate. For example, a wildcard SSL certificate for “*.example.com” will protect the main domain (example.com) as well as subdomains like mail.example.com, blog.example.com, and store.example.com.

A CSR (Certificate Signing Request) is a block of encoded text that is generated on a server when applying for an SSL certificate. It contains important information about the organization and the domain that will be secured.

Our Certificate Authority provides an SSL certificate Request Helper which will create your CSR. This tool allows you to generate the CSR for OpenSSL, Microsoft Exchange 2007, Microsoft Exchange 2010, Java Keytool, F5 Big-IP, and Microsoft IIS

Please note that if you’re generating a CSR for a wildcard SSL certificate, your common name must start with an asterisk (*), i.e., *.fluccs.com.au. The asterisk represents any subdomain name.

Extended Validation (EV) certificates take longer to issue than other types of SSL certificates due to their rigorous verification process which is not automated.
