# How to setup SSL
## Install SSL certificates for Openhim-core
This can be accomplished directly from the OpenHIM console, where you can upload a new certificate for openhim-core through the console.
Openhim-core can be set to automatically watch a path which contains it's certificates. The settings for which path and whether or not it should be automatically monitored, can be configured in the openhim-core config file under: `certificateManagement`.
If the config gets updated, openhim-core will need to be restarted.
## Install SSL certificates for Openhim-console
We recommend setting up NGINX in front of openhim-console which is where SSL certificates should then be used. Here is a [blog](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-create-an-ssl-certificate-on-nginx-for-ubuntu-14-04) to introduce you to how that could work.
Certificates can be purchased or are freely available by using [Letsencrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/).
