How to use the secure server certificate (TLS/SSL)

Like any other certificate, once downloaded, you will have to install it so that the server for which you obtained it can use it. Depending on the server server and/or application this process is different, and it is up to you.

Remember to keep a security copy of the certificate and associated cryptographic keys. With the download only you have this set. And its loss will result in the request for a new one.

Information that could be useful

These are some of the most common questions we receive. If you do not find an answer to your question, contact us.

How much does it cost?

You will be able to see the specific price in the budget that will be sent to you during the application process. If you can’t wait or need to know beforehand, please write to gestioncerts@accv.es with the details of your organization and the certificate you want so we can inform you.

How long does it take to obtain the certificate?

As you know, the application process requires action on your part and ours.

On our side we attend the requests in order of entry, always as quickly as possible. Although we cannot give an exact deadline, if your answers are also fast, you can get the certificate from a few hours to around 72 hours usually.

In what format can I download the certificate?

There are different ways to download the certificate, but the default and recommended process is to download it in .p12 format (PKCS#12). This is the most common and accepted format.

However, there are alternative generation mechanisms to download it in .zip format (prepared for Apatxe server) or .jks (designed for Tomcat or JBoss servers).

How do I renew my certificate?

The renewal actually consists of a new application with the same data as the expiring certificate.

The expiring certificate is not initially revoked. When you have downloaded the new certificate that replaces it, you will have to change it where you have it installed and then revoke the old one from the area for the management of non-personal certificates (NPSC).

I don’t remember my certificate PIN. What do I do?

The PIN or password of a certificate is defined by the person who downloads it at that moment.

As the custodian of this certificate only that person should know that PIN. We do not have access to it at any time and cannot help you retrieve it. It is a security measure.

If you do not remember the PIN of your certificate, you do not have access to it and you need it, we regret to tell you that you can only order a new certificate from scratch and pay its cost.

I have lost my certificate or I think it has been compromised.

You will have to revoke it from the area for the management of non-personal certificates (NPSC). From that moment on, the certificate is cancelled and can no longer be used.

Remember that revocation is irreversible. Once revoked, you must request a new certificate if you need an active one.
