CSR Generator FAQ
Common questions about Certificate Signing Requests
What is a CSR?
A Certificate Signing Request (CSR) is a message sent to a Certificate Authority to request a digital certificate. It contains your public key and identifying information about your organization and domain.
Why generate a CSR online?
Our online CSR generator creates your private key and CSR entirely in your browser for maximum security. No data is transmitted to our servers, making it safer than many server-based tools.
What information do I need to generate a CSR?
You need your domain name (Common Name), and optionally your organization details like company name, department, city, state, and country. The domain name is the only required field.
Is it safe to generate CSR online?
Yes, our CSR generator runs entirely in your browser using Web Crypto API. Your private key never leaves your device and is not sent to any server. This makes it more secure than many online tools.
What key size should I choose?
2048-bit keys are the industry standard and recommended for most use cases. They provide excellent security and are faster to generate. 4096-bit keys offer additional security but take longer to generate and process.
Can I use this CSR with any Certificate Authority?
Yes, our CSR generator creates standard PKCS#10 format CSRs that work with all Certificate Authorities including Let's Encrypt, DigiCert, Comodo, and others.
What should I do with the private key?
Download and store your private key securely on your server. Never share it publicly or send it via email. You'll need this private key to install your SSL certificate once it's issued.
Do you support wildcard certificates?
Yes, you can generate a CSR for wildcard certificates by entering *.yourdomain.com as the Common Name. This will secure your main domain and all subdomains.
