Encryption
SSL certificates provide encrypted connections between your web browser and the the websites you visit.

Security
Data transmitted between your web browser and websites can't be read without being decrypted.

Protection
This prevents third parties from spying on your information.
How does it work?
1. Obtain your certificate
Select Let's Encrypt as the Certificate Authority for your next certificate.

2. Configure
Enter the name and contact for the certificate.
Depending on your plan, the common name will be defaulted, or you'll be able to choose the SAN (Subject Alternative Name).

3. Request
Sit back and relax, DNS is happening. We automatically create DNS records to validate the domain.
Your domain must be resolving through DNSimple name servers for this to work.

4. Install
Follow our installation steps to install the certificate on your webserver.
With the auto-renewal option, you'll receive your new certificate files before the current certificate expires.
