Certificates for cPanel and Webmail

If you log in to your cPanel or webmail by visiting yourdomain.com/cpanel or yourdomain.com/webmail, you'll get redirected to a secure version with https:// in the URL and a padlock in your browser.

Depending on your browser however, you may also get a warning about the certificate we're using to secure the connection. These are 'self signed' certificates so most browsers complain that they aren't from a trusted authority. We'd just like to assure you they are - they're from us!

The use of the certificates mean that any password information you change in your cPanel or emails read in webmail are sent using SSL encryption making it much much more difficult for the data to be intercepted and used.
