Do you have an #SSL set up on your website? As of May 1 of this year, Google will flag any website without an SSL certification. If your website is not secure, Google will warn your website visitors, and it will often prompt them to leave.
Branding Creatively can simplify your life and make you feel secure by offering high security with the latest information for your website. Not only does it protect your server, but it protects your client, too. Double protection. An SSL certification is not just something we recommend, but it is something your website absolutely requires. Your website is one of the most important ways you communicate with your consumers, maintain their privacy, and is definitely something that must be protected.
Would you leave your house without locking your doors or setting the alarm? NO! Would you drive your car without wearing a seatbelt? NO! You double up on security in many aspects of your life, so why not for your business’s website as well.
Each day we hear of incidents of identity theft, stealing accounts, and installation of malware from web sources. Are you the next VICTIM?! Each of these security breaches have techniques that allow unauthorized access to your device or network by hackers for nefarious purposes. This is commonly referred to as social engineering—when you’re tricked into clicking on a link or open files or apps from dubious sources. It’s an easy mistake to make; especially when the source looks legitimate.
What is SSL?
SSL stands for Secure Sockets Layer. SSL is the implementation for setting up a secure and encrypted link between two points on the internet. SSL not only protects you, but it protects anyone who visits your site as well. It ensures that both your information, and your consumers’ information, remains secure and safe. If you offer products or services online that can be paid for on your website, SSL is a legal necessity.
With the world becoming more and more digitalized, online security is crucial, now more than ever. Find out more about our website services here, and sign up with us to get an SSL certification for your website today!
