Security information

The Control Cockpit user interface is protected by SSL using a self-signed certificate by default.

Since the certificate is unknown to your browser, a security warning is displayed the first time you run the application. The security warning depends on the browser you are using. This occurs because the certificate used for the encrypted connection is self-signed and created locally on your computer. The web browser is not able to verify the certificate authority.
To open the SSL-encrypted Control Cockpit interface:
  1. Follow the steps described below for the browser you are using.
  2. Alternatively, you can use your own trusted certificate for the SSL encryption to no longer display the security message. To do this, simply upload your .pe certificate during the installation process when the respective step is displayed. If you want to upload the certificate after you have completed the installation, you need to reinstall the application. For more information see Downloading and installing the software.
