SSL/TLS certificates
Fast, easy, free TLS for websites
Protect users and data without slowing down web apps by relying on Cloudflare for TLS. Save time on TLS certificate management and keep certificates up to date to avoid browser security warnings and search engine deprioritization.
BENEFITS OF CLOUDFLARE TLS
Improve website performance
By using the latest protocols and operating close to users, Cloudflare TLS minimizes latency to speed up webpage load times.
Protect users and data
TLS ensures data passing between users and servers is encrypted. Prevent on-path attacks, and safeguard user data to meet compliance requirements.
Boost traffic to website
Search engines favor websites that use TLS. Avoid browser warnings present on unencrypted sites that dissuade users from visiting.
Deploy effortlessly
Set up certificates for a domain in less than 5 minutes. Keep your hosting provider. No code changes required.
Faster, more secure websites with TLS
Formerly known as SSL, Transport Layer Security (TLS) encrypts web traffic and authenticates origin servers. Cloudflare TLS certificates auto-renew, saving time and money and preventing service disruptions.
Cloudflare also has advanced customization options for enterprises, including Advanced Certificate Manager, keyless SSL, custom hostnames, and SSL for SaaS.
