You can find it by login into your cPanel and navigate to the <strong>Security<\/strong> section or simply by typing <strong>Let\u2019s Encrypt<\/strong> in the search field.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"770\" height=\"226\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fastcomet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/letsencrypt1.jpg\" alt=\"FastComet cPanel New Feature Let's Encrypt SSL\" class=\"wp-image-826\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fastcomet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/letsencrypt1.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.fastcomet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/letsencrypt1-300x88.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.fastcomet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/letsencrypt1-768x225.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s Encrypt is a free and open certificate authority service provided by the Internet Security Research Group (ISRG). The project\u2019s main goal is to provide domain-validated certificates on-demand and make the internet a safer place. Backers like the Mozilla Foundation, Akamai, and Cisco Systems further increase the credibility and success rate of the project. The main benefits it offers are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Anyone who owns a domain name can use the service to get a trusted certificate for free.<\/li><li>The service advances global online security by enabling more websites to show they are trustworthy.<\/li><li>The configuration and renewal are automatic which makes \u201cLet\u2019s Encrypt\u201d easy to use by anyone.<\/li><li>Certificates are publicly available for anyone to inspect, which guarantees transparency.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>As a FastComet user, you are now able to generate and enable Let\u2019s Encrypt certificates directly within your cPanel control panel without filling out any information details with a click of a button. Just choose the domain\/subdomain you wish to cover with a certificate and click on the <strong>Issue<\/strong> button next to it.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"770\" height=\"399\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fastcomet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/letsencrypt2.jpg\" alt=\"Issue SSL Certificates in FastComet cPanel Let's Encrypt\" class=\"wp-image-830\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fastcomet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/letsencrypt2.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.fastcomet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/letsencrypt2-300x155.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.fastcomet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/letsencrypt2-768x398.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Issue Your SSL Certificate<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can have multiple certificates installed on your account for each domain and subdomain you want. Your new Let&#8217;s Encrypt certificate has a 90-day time span but it will automatically renew itself unless you choose to cancel it through the cPanel interface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re not entirely comfortable with the Let\u2019s Encrypt approach to democratizing encryption, don\u2019t worry!
