We are pleased to inform you that we are currently offering Free SSL from Certificate Authority from Let’s Encrypt and Comodo. They are currently being offered at no additional cost for all our shared hosting plans, to provide a basic form of encryption.

How to Setup Free SSL?
For cPanel, free SSL are automatically activated.
For Plesk, please refer here: https://www.apc.sg/support/Knowledgebase/Article/View/68/9/installing-lets-encrypt-free-ssl-on-plesk to activate free SSL.

Kindly note that free SSL are only applied for customers with expired SSL or hosting services without existing SSL.

Benefits of SSL
With https:// in front of the website URL in the address bar, communications, data and transactions are safe from potential information skimming or sniffing, as opposed to http:// that represents a standard protocol on websites that do not use SSL.
This is particularly important for company and ecommerce websites that collect personal information, where the use of SSL certificates is a matter of corporate credibility.
