What is a SSL Web Server Certificate?

With a Thawte SSL Web Server Certificate on our website, any information sent to our web server is encrypted or scrambled, making it impossible to intercept or steal. It also displays the identity of www.fastfixdirect.co.uk.

A SSL Web Server Certificate enables our customers to view the following information :

- The domain for which the certificate was issued. This allows you to check that the SSL Web Server Certificate was issued for our domain (URL).
- The owner of the certificate. This acts as further reassurance, since our customers are able to see whom they are doing business with.
- The physical location of Fast Fix Direct Ltd. Once again this reassures you that you are dealing with an actual entity.
- The validity dates of the certificate. This is extremely important, since it shows customer that our SSL Web Server Certificate is current.

Utilizing Thawte's digital SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) 'handshake', based on the leading security protocol on the Internet, you can rest assured that all online communications are secure while the information is being transmitted.

The tried-and-tested technology of Thawte's SSL Web Server Certificate protects against password and information interception, ensuring that our online relationship with you is based on trust.
