Web SSL / TLS 

Generate an SSL certificate and Signing Request 

Overview 

You can generate an SSL certificate, consisting of an RSA private key and 

certificate, for any domain using WebHost Manager. An SSL (Secure Sockets 

Layer) certificate is a public key which is verified by a trusted organization (in this 

case 

RSA Data Security, Inc.

, a recognized world leader in cryptography and the 

global de facto standard for public key cryptography and digital signatures). This 

will allow viewers of an SSL site to verify the identity of the web site by its public 

key.
