SSL Certificate is used for encrypting data exchanges between the user and the server. Without certificates, you can not use the transfer protocols FTPS and HTTPS.

Click the "Add SSL Certificate" button to choose an existed SSL certificate.

Wing FTP Server supports standard PEM format only, so normally you need to provide a cert file, a key file and the key password (if existing).

Note: If you have an existed PFX cert (which is normally used to store just one private key and it's associated certificate chain), then you will need to convert it into a PEM format cert first.

If you do not have any certificate file, click the "Create Certificate File" button, then a certificate creation form will appear.

Certificate Name

This name will be used for the filename of cert files.

For example, you name the certifcate "new_ssl_cert", and choose "d:/certfiles" as the output directory, then WingFTP will generate three files under "d:/certfiles":

"new_ssl_cert.crt": the self-signed certificate file.

"new_ssl_cert.key": the private key file. Please keep it secret to avoid other party misusing your SSL certificate.

"new_ssl_cert.csr": the Certificate Signing Request file. You can send it to the Certificate Authorities(CAs) to apply for a signed certificate.

Output directory

Output directory is where the created cert files are to be placed.

Key Size

Key size for the private key file.
