HTTPS is a secure web protocol that allows each of your websites to safely communicate with your website visitors.

Enabling SSL
------------

Site Factory subscribers can [manage the SSL certificates](/acquia-cloud-platform/manage-apps/ssl/cert) associated with their environments using the self-service interface available in the main Cloud Platform dashboard.

Note

Legacy SSL certificates aren’t supported on Site Factory environments. See [Standard certificates](/acquia-cloud-platform/manage-apps/ssl#cloud-standard-and-legacy-certs)

If you have any questions or uncertainty about the method that you should use to enable HTTPS/SSL for your websites, [contact Acquia Support](/service-offerings/support#contact-acquia-support).
