Supports international certificates from major renowned brands
Tencent Cloud SSL Certificates are issued by top international Certificate Authorities (CAs), ensuring security. A Certificate Authority (CA) is a network organization responsible for managing and issuing security credentials and encryption security keys, and for verifying the legality of public keys in the public key system. It is crucial for a CA to verify the authenticity of users and businesses, and its authority and impartiality are of utmost importance. Tencent Cloud only collaborates with top-tier, authoritative CAs to provide secure SSL certificates. Currently, certificates from DigiCert, GeoTrust, GlobalSign, TrustAsia, and Wotrus can be purchased through Tencent Cloud.
Supports Chinese Cryptography Standard (SM2) certificates
Tencent Cloud's proprietary DNSPod brand SSL certificates support the SM2 Chinese Cryptography Standard, meeting the domestic transformation and cryptography standard compliance requirements of government agencies, public institutions, large state-owned enterprises, and financial banks.
Support for multi-year SSL certificates
SSL certificate processes are simplified and automated in the entire lifecycle covering application, validation, review, issue, and renewal.
Comprehensive automated management features for SSL certificates
The automated management features provided by Tencent Cloud SSL Certificates are as follows:
Service name | Service description |
Quick deployment to cloud services | SSL certificates can be swiftly deployed to Tencent Cloud services such as Cloud Load Balancer, CDN, Cloud Live, COS, and Anti-DDoS among 12 other cloud services, with support for batch deployment. |
Certificate auto-renewal service | Assists in alleviating the hassle of manually renewing SSL certificates annually. |
Certificate Hosting Service | Upon enabling the certificate hosting service, you will not need to manually redeploy the new certificate to the services on the cloud resources after the old certificate is renewed. This means the new SSL certificate will be automatically deployed to the Tencent Cloud resources where the original SSL certificate was deployed, such as Load Balancer, CDN, Cloud Live, DDOS, etc. This helps you reduce operational costs incurred due to repeated deployments caused by certificate validity periods. |
Extended service | Supports the application and management of certificates via API calls, freeing you from the constraints of solely using the certificate console for application and management. |
