What Is It?
An SSL Certificate authenticates a website’s identity and enables secure, encrypted communication. When a site has a valid SSL Certificate, a padlock icon appears in the browser address bar, and the URL begins with https instead of http.
SSL Certificates help protect data transmitted to and from the site and are required for all NMSU websites to ensure privacy and trustworthiness.
Who Is Eligible to Use It?
Any NMSU department with a domain issued through NMSU’s Domain Request Service may request an SSL Certificate to maintain site security.
