A Certificate Signing Request (CSR) is required when you wish to obtain an SSL certificate which will encrypt all of the payment and account info which will be exchanged between your website and its visitors. The CSR contains info about the site as well as its owner in Base64-encoded form - web address, physical address as well as email, company name and unit, etcetera. Based upon this code, an authorized SSL vendor provides you with the certificate, which is digitally signed with the vendor's private key so as to show that they're a dependable issuer. Throughout the CSR generation, a unique private key is also created and the set up of the SSL involves all of the four codes - both the keys, the certificate and the CSR. Then, you will be able to use a URL beginning with https:// for your website rather than http:// and the website visitors will be able to view the information that you've provided for the CSR using their web browsers.
