# SSL-Certificate ### What is an SSL-Certificate? An SSL-certificate is a digital certificate that authenticates a website’s identity and enables encrypted communication between the website and its visitors. It ensures that data transferred - like passwords, credit cards, numbers, or personal information - is secure and protected from tampering. It helps keeping your online data private and verifies if the website is trustworthy. ### My website and SSL-security Normally, all websites hosted on the MG WebDev network are equipped with an SSL-certificate. If you experience any issues or have notices your SSL-certificate has expired, please contact support. {% hint style="warning" %} Websites that are not hosted by us aren't equipped with an SSL-certificate. {% endhint %} --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
