SSL Certificates

SSL certificates are used to secure HTTPS communication and authenticate users or servers in the Fudo Enterprise environment.

  • Fudo Admin Panel HTTPS certificate – secures access to the Admin Panel via HTTPS.
  • User Access Gateway HTTPS certificate – secures the end-user login portal.
  • User CA certificate – trusted certificate authorities used to validate client certificates during user authentication.

Note

Fudo Enterprise requires the use of unencrypted certificate keys. This way, the user is not prompted to enter the key password on every restart. See: How to decrypt a password-protected RSA private key.
