Using OpenSSL to create self-certified PEM

Install OpenSSL from the link below.

Link: https://www.openssl.org/source/

  • Follow the instruction from the website.

 

(2) Run Command Prompt

Run command prompt as an administrator.

(3) Use OpenSSL command to create a key file.

  • Password : Enter the password you wish to use.

 

(4) Create CSR file by using the key file.

  • Answer the questions. They can be skipped by pressing Enter.

 

(5) Create CRT file and P12 file.

  • These certificates are valid for 3650 days.

(6) Create PEM file.

  • Now HTTPS server is available with the PEM file.

 

  • Using any private certificate will still trigger “Certificate not trusted” warning message. This message is only avoidable by using a certificate issued by a publicly qualified institution. However, please keep in mind that the method explained in this manual still provides strong security using SSL.
