#3 An SSL certificate (also known as a TLS or SSL/TLS certificate) is a digital document that binds the identity of a website to a cryptographic key pair consisting of a public key and a private key. The public key, included in the certificate, allows a web browser to initiate an encrypted communication session with a web server via the TLS and HTTPS protocols. The private key is kept secure on the server, and is used to digitally sign web pages and other documents (such as images and JavaScript files).

An SSL certificate also includes identifying information about a website, including its domain name and, optionally, identifying information about the site’s owner. If the web server’s SSL certificate is signed by a publicly trusted certificate authority (CA), like SSL.com, digitally signed content from the server will be trusted by end users’ web browsers and operating systems as authentic.

An SSL certificate is a type of X.509 certificate. Digicert.com

#5 Um, Bad.... you might want to come up with a different name for your gang... "Backend Boys" could lead to some misunderstandings....

#6 We have multimillion dollar vendors that forget to update their certs. Really, really frustrating when we approve software to run based on that. Brings everything to a halt.

#7 Smells like a conspiracy to me! I thought your roof was too slanted and couldn't fix the antenna.

#8 "Backend Boys" could lead to some misunderstandings....

Not to be confused with the Backstreet Boys, right? OK, maybe not the best example...

I do "Crazy Ivans" from time to time, so no misunderstandings.
