No more SSL Certificate need to be bought thanks to letsencrypt.org
Hello All,

I have just found this information which might help many of us to implement SSL / https: for our websites for free !!!


Refer to Let’s Encrypt website launches in mid-2015 https://letsencrypt.org/howitworks/


Anyone who has gone through the trouble of setting up a secure website knows what a hassle getting a certificate can be. Let’s Encrypt automates away all this pain and lets site operators turn on HTTPS with a single click or shell command.

When Let’s Encrypt launches in mid-2015, enabling HTTPS for your site will be as easy as installing a small piece of certificate management software on the server:

Code:
$ sudo apt-get install lets-encrypt

$ lets-encrypt example.com

That’s all there is to it! https://example.com is immediately live.

The Let’s Encrypt management software will:

Automatically prove to the Let’s Encrypt CA that you control the website
Obtain a browser-trusted certificate and set it up on your web server
Keep track of when your certificate is going to expire, and automatically renew it
Help you revoke the certificate if that ever becomes necessary.
No validation emails, no complicated configuration editing, no expired certificates breaking your website. And of course, because Let’s Encrypt provides certificates for free, no need to arrange payment.

Enjoy !!

Thanks for the heads up, this is significant news that will save hundreds of dollars on every website that I have, now I just need to find a web host that will support it.

Does anybody know of any web hosts that will support this?

Hmm - seems interesting, definitely worth investigation..

I'm guessing it will take a few years before it's really useful - until the root certs get pushed out by microsoft/apple/google/linux distros/etc.. it ain't worth touching IMO :)

I see Cisco is a sponsor.. interesting.. I wonder if they're hoping people jumping on board with SSL will hasten the need for IPv6 (and their kit) :)

Arriving September 2015, you need to have shell/ssh access at your web server to install this service.
