Hey everyone,

Just a quick question, let’s encrypt, what is it and how can I take advantage of its services?

For a bit of background I’m trying to setup KanIDM and the need for a ca certificate is needed, I was told to use let’s encrypt to create it.

Just looking for knowledge.

Thanks!

    If you own a domain name, you can point that domain name at your IP, and Let’s Encrypt’s cryptbot program can help you get a free TLS certificate to host all your stuff over https.

    With certain setups it can be renewed automatically, otherwise the certificate lasts 90 days, and renewal only takes a few minutes.
