The use of a digital certificate on the web server allows all information traffic between the server and the client to be encrypted. In version 2.1, the use of certificates is mandatory, since non-encrypted traffic may be easily captured by hackers, causing the client information to be accessed.

 

We suggest the use of valid certificates, issued by certification entities (Verisign, Certisign, Thawte, among others). If the organization chooses to use self-signed certificates, the system will work; however, during the access, security messages may be issued by the navigator - without being controlled by SoftExpert.

 

For further details about how to configure certificates in IIS, we suggest reading and executing the procedures released by Microsoft (https://docs.microsoft.com/).
