If you want customers to enter sensitive
information on your website (personal details, credit cards
etc) then secure webspace is a *must*.
| Visitors to your site will be expecting to see the padlock
symbol as a sign of security. If they do not they will
not use your site. |

Option 1 - your own SSL certificate
We are a Thawte hosting partner and can obtain an SSL certificate
on your behalf.

The standard Webserver Certificate connects
at 128 bit, 56 bit or 40 bit depending on the client's browser capability.
This is the most popular type of SSL. A SuperCert enables 128 bit
encryption, even if the browser is only 40/56 bit. For a better
explanation of how the SuperCert works click here.
A certificate is bound onto a single host/domain.
For example, we have our own certificate bound onto https://secure.titanhosts.net.
Some customers prefer https://www.theirdomain.com. The choice is
yours, however once the certificate has been issued it cannot be
changed without a new certificate.
We map the certificate onto your existing webspace
so there are no problems passing variables/sessions between the
non-secure and secure areas (A common problem with hosts that have
a separate secure webserver)
Option 2 - a shared SSL area
We can give you access to an area of webspace under https://secure.titanhosts.net.
This is standard on a Win200 and Win500 account, and £50 per
year for all other accounts.
Our recommendation is that you have your own
SSL certificate - customers will not be transported away from your
site which appears more professional.
