Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a protocol for transmitting private information over the Inter-
net. SSL uses two keys to encr ypt data: a public key known to ever yone and a private or
secret key known only to the recipient of the message.
SSL cer tificates are issued by trusted Cer tification Authorities (CAs). The CA digitally signs
each cer tificate. Each client contains a list of trusted CAs. When an SSL handshake
between a ser ver and your Gateway occurs, the client verifies that the ser ver cer tificate
was issued by a trusted CA. If the CA is not trusted, a warning will appear. Cer tificates
installed in your Gateway and ser vers to which it connects verify to each other that commu-
nications between them are encr ypted and private.
Cer tificates are purchased from an issuing Cer tificate Authority, usually by your corporate
IT depar tment or other ser vice provider, and provided to users for secure communications.
You must obtain a cer tificate file before you can install it.
