Downloading an SSL Certificate

Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encrypts connections between clients and servers, preventing data from being tampered with or stolen during transmission.

To improve data security, you can enable SSL when creating an instance. After the instance is created, you can connect to it over SSL. An SSL security certificate is required for connecting to an instance over SSL.

This section describes how to obtain an SSL certificate.
