However, it’s recommended to integrate them both into your overall WordPress security strategy. An SSL certificate (Secure Sockets Layer certificate) creates a secure connection between your website and your site visitors’ browsers. It encrypts any data shared on your site — like addresses, emails, phone numbers, and credit card information — and protects that data from hackers. If you don’t have an SSL certificate, your site will show a “not secure” warning on users’ browsers, which can reduce your legitimacy in their eyes. SSL certificates also have a positive impact on search engine rankings. The process of setting up an SSL certificate will depend on your hosting provider. Some hosts include free certificates, while others charge annually. = How does Jetpack work with WP Super Cache? = WP Super Cache works by caching your WordPress pages as static HTML pages so that page requests, for an already cached page, do not need to be processed by the WordPress PHP scripts. Typically, most visitors of your site will view cached versions of the WordPress pages, so your server will have more processing power to serve an increased number of users. Jetpack has an image CDN that works by caching and serving your WordPress images globally from its own servers. These plugins are both maintained by Automattic and work together to give you ultimate site speed. Automattic actively develops [Jetpack Boost](https://wordpress.org/plugins/jetpack-boost/) to help you increase your website speed in ways beyond WP Super Cache. We recommend using Jetpack Boost instead of WP Super Cache. = What version of PHP do I need? = Sites must be built on PHP 7.4 or greater, but Jetpack always supports the latest version of PHP. = Can Jetpack help my site comply with GDPR? = Our Cookie and Consent Banner can help you comply with GDPR. The European Union’s ePrivacy Directive (often referred to as the ‘cookie law’) and General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) place requirements on website owners and operators to provide information about, and gain consent for their use of cookies. = Can Jetpack be used to transfer websites to a new host? = Jetpack Backup can do a full website migration to a new host, migrate theme files and plugins to a new database, create full database backups, clone websites, repair broken websites by restoring older backups and allow you to easily set up a test site by creating a duplicate of your existing website. == Screenshots == 1.
