<p>startSSL not longer issuing certs</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>[[Category:Security]][[Category:Management]]<br /> == Introduction ==<br /> This section is to assist you in the basics of certificates, how to generate them or even a few examples of free Certificate authorities and even some paid ones<br /> <br /> == Pros and Cons ==<br /> <br /> The pros of securing your home lab with certificates is if you are accessing this via the web you know your data and/or credentials are &#039;safe&#039; within transit. I use the word safe as this depends on the cipher used and any known vulnerabilities that crop up. For example the heartbleed bug [[http://heartbleed.com/]]<br /> <br /> <br /> == Costs ==<br /> Free to £$£$ hundreds <br /> <br /> == Use Cases ==<br /> The use cases for this type of technology can be used in SSL VPNs, RDP Web Access, Citrix Netscalers, VMware vCenter/Horizon desktops<br /> <br /> <br /> == Known Issues and Solutions ==<br /> <br /> * Self Signed certificates<br /> ** Self signed certficates can be used for free but wont be trusted by any machine outside your domain<br /> * Free CA&#039;s<br /> ** There are some free CA&#039;s such as &#039;&#039;https://www.startssl.com/&#039;&#039; (no longer issuing as of 1 Jan 2018) or the latest up coming project https://letsencrypt.org/ as well as https://www.sslforfree.com/<br /> * Paid for CA&#039;s<br /> ** There are a few common CA&#039;s you can use such as https://www.digicert.com or https://ssl.comodo.com/free-ssl-certificate.php who offer a free 90 day trial so you can make sure you are happy</div>
