This was discussed in an announcement earlier in the week, but may have been overlooked by some users. Due to some security updates on the CPanel servers we will need to cease providing access to the free shared secure certificate, on all shared CPanel hosting servers, effective immediately.
This is due to the way shared secure certificates run on CPanel
servers. Unfortunately using a shared secure certificate is now deemed
to be too much a of a security problem, and it conflicts with other
security protocols which have been introduced with urgency on the
servers. This is being done for the security of all users of the shared
CPanel servers.
Although we don't know how many people make use of the free shared
secure certificate, we don't believe there are very many. If clients do
need a secure certificate, we do still allow dedicated certificates to
be installed on our CPanel hosting plans. A dedicated secure certificate
also offers a far more professional look for secure pages, as the
certificate is in your companies own name. Clients who need a secure
certificate for their website will need to buy one, and their own
dedicated IP. Please contact us to arrange this. We do however still
offer a shared secure certificate on our non CPanel unmetered web
hosting plans, however it may also be removed at a later date, if it is
deemed to be a security issue.
