Order an SSL certificate

With an SSL certificate your domain is accessible via https and data is transmitted encrypted.

*1: This certificate type covers the www subdomain *2: A wildcard certificate covers a subdomain level. For example, a wildcard certificate for *.nine.ch will be valid for docs.nine.ch, but not for dev.docs.nine.ch, because dev is a second subdomain level. *3: This certificate type does not cover www subdomains. www have to be ordered as additional SAN

Order​

In order to order an SSL certificate, further information is required in addition to the domain to be covered.

To validate a certificate, proof of ownership of the domain is required.

This proof can be provided via a DNS entry to be created or a file to be stored on the web server.

Alternatively, the certification authority can send an e-mail to one of the following e-mail addresses:

  • admin@DOMAIN
  • administrator@DOMAIN
  • hostmaster@DOMAIN
  • postmaster@DOMAIN
  • webmaster@DOMAIN

The e-mail contains a link as well as a verification code which has to be entered at the certification authority.
