    Lightbulb 128-bit SSL Encryption Vs 256-bit SSL Encryption

    If you are looking for SSL certificate, it will be your primary requirement to know about the bit and encryption process. You must know which encryption level is best for you. In this topic, you will get more information about 128-bit encryption and 256-bit encryption.

    Encryption is the process, which turns sensitive information into useless information with keys. These keys allow right person to decode the information. This is very important to prevent online forgery and theft.

    128-bit encryption and 256-bit encryption are most powerful SSL encryption commercially available today. Both of these types of encryption make use of what is known as Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), which makes use of a special algorithm.

    When an SSL handshake occurs between a client and server, the Web browser, the client computer operating system, and the SSL Certificate determine a level of encryption. Strong encryption, at 128-bit, can calculate 288 times as many combinations as 40-bit encryption. It is trillion times stronger.


    256-bit encryption is much stronger than 128-bit. 256-bit encryption is much stronger than 128-bit. 256-bit encryption delivers higher level of protection. As technology moves ahead, it is expected that at some point the industry standard will have to shift to 256-bit encryption for secure sockets layer protection.

    128-bit encryption is enough for your business because it provides enough security to your e commerce website. Each encryption level causes the algorithm to behave slightly differently, so the increasing level would not only offer more number of bits but also increases combination.

    128-bit encryption fits in your budget if you do not need higher level of security. 256-bit encryption is more costly than 128-bit encryption. If you want more security, and your website can manage the expense of increased security, it might be worth it to you.

    If you are choosing an SSL Certificate on a budget, chances are you will be OK with 128 bits. It is not likely need 256 bits, and pay for it cannot be an option. For additional security, your company can handle the cost of security that deserves you.

    There are several free SSL Certificate, the 40-bit encryption, and you should be smart to pay for a 128-bit encryption, rather than risk the chance of that website, your company is weak against attacks. While 256-bit encryption may not be essential, surely it is encouraged that you obtain an SSL certificate with at least 128-bit encryption to secure e-commerce web site with your consumers.
