There are a number of ways and methods to obtain a signed SSL certificate for your website. Usually, your IT team will already have a preferred supplier and can obtain you a valid SSL certificate for you. Alternatively you can use a common DIY method to generate a Certificate Signing Request utilising OpenSSL.
Regardless of who you purchase an SSL certificate from, Emersion strongly recommends that you purchase an Extended Validation (EV) certificate. Extended Validation SSL Certificates are validated to the highest degree to provide consumer confidence in the identity of the web site operator. It provides website owners with the ‘green bar’ in the address bar, to show the highest level of security for your visitors.
When the SSL certificate has been delivered to you, forward it to Emersion with the Private Key. We need both the SSL Certificate and Private Key in order to complete the installation of the SSL Certificate on the server.
