A Simple Guide for SSL Certificates
Hello,
We hope you are finding the Customer Cloud Connect discussions, product tips, and best practices valuable.
A topic that is always of interest is securing microsites, and what customers usually ask for is a simple guide on how to secure a microsite or how to renew their certificates. We offer two solutions, Automated Certificate Management and Self-Managed Certificates. A feature introduced in the 22B release notes, Automated Certificate Management (ACM) is available on all pods.
Why do I need to secure my website?
This process is used to encrypt the data that is passed between a visitor’s browser and the web server e.g.: password. A secure site will show in the URL the fact the site is secured by adding the letter s: HTTPS// if the site is not secured then it appears like this HTTP// and might trigger a warning for the person visiting the website that the site is not secured – this case is far from an ideal journey.
