SSL Manager
Order, install, and manage your SSL.com certificates — without the command line
SSL Manager is a free Windows desktop application from SSL.com. It provides a graphical interface for ordering new certificates, installing them on your server, managing existing certificates, and handling YubiKey FIPS tokens — all without command-line tools or MMC snap-ins.
A Windows GUI for the full SSL.com certificate lifecycle
SSL Manager bridges the gap between SSL.com’s web portal and your Windows server environment. Instead of manually generating CSRs, copying certificate files, and navigating the Windows Certificate Manager, SSL Manager handles all of it through a straightforward interface.
SSL Manager is free. It works with any SSL.com certificate order — there is no additional cost to use it.
