SmartHome-Products.com uses a 256 bit Encryption certificate known as a Secure Sockets Layer or SSL
A Secure Sockets Layer or SSL certificate is a digital certificate that authenticates the identity of a website and encrypts information sent to the server using SSL technology. Encryption is the process of scrambling data into an undecipherable format that can only be returned to a readable format with the proper decryption key.
A certificate serves as an electronic "passport" that establishes an online entity’s credentials when doing business on the Web. When an Internet user attempts to send confidential information to a Web server, the user’s browser accesses the server’s digital certificate and establishes a secure connection.
An SSL certificate contains the following information:
• The certificate holder’s name
• The certificate’s serial number and expiration date
• A copy of the certificate holder’s public key
• The digital signature of the certificate-issuing authority
To verify the certificate is valid and the information you enter into the SmartHome-Products.com is safe just find the lock in your browser usually located to the right of your address bar and click on it or simply click the seal below.
