Does AWS provide SSL certificate?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 6:07 pm

AWS provides both SSL and TLS certificates, but SSL is the stronger of the two. TLS is used for secure connections between browsers and servers, but SSL is used for secure connections between browsers and Amazon Web Services (AWS) itself.

PRO TIP: AWS does not provide SSL certificates. You must obtain a certificate from a third-party provider and configure it with your AWS resources.

In order for a website to be securely accessed by a user, both SSL and TLS must be used.

SSL provides a higher level of security than TLS, but both are necessary in order to provide the highest level of security. By using both SSL and TLS, AWS can ensure that all connections between users and the AWS service are secure.
