SSL vs SiteLock
You might be wondering: do I need SiteLock if I already have an SSL certificate?
Short answer: Yes, you need both.
Longer answer: SSL and SiteLock protect your website against different threats. SSL protects hackers from eavesdropping on data while it’s traveling between the user and your website. SiteLock protects your website against direct attacks that try to take over, damage or destroy your website.
