CSR Generator — FAQ

What is a CSR?+
A Certificate Signing Request is an encoded block of text containing your public key and organisation details. A certificate authority signs it to create your SSL certificate.
Is it safe to generate a private key online?+
Our generator creates the key in memory for your request only and never writes or logs it. For maximum security on servers you control, you can also run openssl req on the server itself.
2048 or 4096-bit?+
2048-bit RSA is the industry standard and fastest. Choose 4096-bit if your security policy requires it.
