Install a personalised SSL certificate

Although Infomaniak offers you all the SSL certificates you might need:

• Let's Encrypt certificates for personal sites: click here to install a Let's Encrypt certificate (only possible with websites hosted by Infomaniak)
• DV certificates from Sectigo for professional/private sites which are not listed on the commercial register and EV certificates from Sectigo for companies listed on the commercial register: click here to order an EV or DV certificate from Sectigo, the leading certification authority worldwide (click here if you want to compare these SSL certificates: price, guarantees, services included, etc.)

it is also possible to install an SSL certificate obtained elsewhere (intermediate certificate from a certification body of your choice), personalised or self-signed certificates.
