Getting a Free SSL Certificate from Comodo can be done in two ways - using the 3-step process or the free Comodo certificate management utility. The free certificate management utility is available for Apache and IIS Users, and this simplifies the complete process of getting the certificate.
The 3-step process involves:
- Creating your CSR (Certificate Signing Request)

Generate a Certificate Signing Request (CSR). CSR generation depends on the software you use on your web server. Refer to the CSR help documentation for further details.
Next, enroll your certificate at the PositiveSSL Trial Certificate link by providing the CSR generated, and the server software used to generate the CSR.
