    1. Identify and List All Active SSL Certificates

    • Access SayPro’s SSL certificate management system (e.g., Cloudflare, cPanel, or hosting provider’s SSL panel).
    • Generate a report of all active SSL certificates, including:
      • Domain names covered
      • Issuer (e.g., Let’s Encrypt, DigiCert, GlobalSign)
      • Expiration date
      • Certificate type (e.g., Wildcard SSL, EV SSL, DV SSL)
    • Document SSL details in an SSL tracking sheet.

    2. Set Up Monitoring and Expiry Alerts

    • Use an SSL monitoring tool such as:
      • SSL Labs (for manual checks)
      • UptimeRobot or Nagios (for automated SSL expiry alerts)
    • Configure notifications to alert the SayPro IT and Security team 30, 15, and 5 days before expiry.
    • Assign team members responsible for SSL renewal.

    3. Renew SSL Certificates Before Expiry

    • Check whether the SSL provider offers auto-renewal or requires manual renewal.
    • If auto-renewal is enabled, verify that payment and domain verification settings are up to date.
    • If manual renewal is required:
      • Generate a new Certificate Signing Request (CSR).
      • Submit the CSR to the SSL provider.
      • Validate domain ownership (via email, DNS, or file upload).
      • Download and install the renewed certificate.
    • Document the renewal process and update the SSL tracking sheet.

    4. Deploy the Renewed SSL Certificate

    • Install the renewed SSL certificate on SayPro’s web servers and classified ad platform.
    • Restart relevant services (Apache, Nginx, or other web servers).
    • Verify SSL configuration using tools like:
      • SSL Labs’ SSL Test
      • OpenSSL command line tool
      • Browser security checks

    5. Validate and Test SSL Implementation

    • Ensure HTTPS is properly enforced across all SayPro classified sites.

      • Check for SSL warnings in browsers.
      • Verify proper redirection from HTTP to HTTPS.
      • Inspect mixed content issues (HTTP elements loading on an HTTPS page).
    • Conduct security scans to confirm encryption strength.

    6. Document and Report SSL Updates

    • Update SayPro’s internal documentation with renewal dates and new SSL details.
    • Prepare a report summarizing SSL renewals, including:
      • Domains secured
      • SSL provider and certificate type
      • Renewal date and next expiry date
      • Any challenges encountered and resolutions
    • Submit the report to SayPro Classified Office under SayPro Marketing Royalty SCMR.

    Key Deliverables

    ✅ Updated SSL Tracking Sheet – Listing active certificates and expiration dates.
    ✅ SSL Monitoring System Alerts – Configured reminders for upcoming renewals.

    • Encrypt communication between users and SayPro’s website to prevent cyber threats such as data interception and unauthorized access.
    • Improve website credibility and user confidence by displaying the padlock icon and HTTPS prefix.
    • Enhance search engine ranking, as SSL encryption is a ranking factor for search engines like Google.
    • Ensure compliance with global security standards such as GDPR, PCI DSS, and ISO 27001 where applicable.

    2. Steps to Obtain and Implement SSL Certificates

    Step 1: Determine SSL Certificate Requirements

    • Identify the type of SSL certificate required:
      • Single-Domain SSL – for securing one website (e.g., saypro.com).
      • Wildcard SSL – for securing the main website and all its subdomains (e.g., classifieds.saypro.com, shop.saypro.com).
      • Multi-Domain SSL (SAN SSL) – for securing multiple domain names under one certificate.
    • Assess security levels:
      • Domain Validation (DV) SSL – basic encryption for general websites.
      • Organization Validation (OV) SSL – verifies company identity along with encryption.
      • Extended Validation (EV) SSL – the highest level of validation with business verification.

    Step 2: Select a Reliable SSL Certificate Provider

    • Choose from trusted Certificate Authorities (CAs) such as:
      • Let’s Encrypt (Free, DV SSL)
      • DigiCert
      • GlobalSign
      • Sectigo (Comodo)
      • GoDaddy SSL
    • Compare pricing, warranty, support, and additional security features.

    Step 3: Generate a Certificate Signing Request (CSR)

    • Access the SayPro web server (Apache, Nginx, IIS, or cloud service like AWS).
    • Generate a CSR file, which includes domain information and cryptographic keys.
    • Submit the CSR to the chosen Certificate Authority for verification.

    Step 4: Complete Domain and Business Verification

    • For DV SSL, verify ownership via email, DNS record update, or file upload.
    • For OV and EV SSL, submit business registration documents and verification details.

    Step 5: Install the SSL Certificate on the Server

    • Download the SSL certificate from the CA.
    • Install it on the SayPro web server, ensuring correct configuration with HTTPS redirection.
    • Test the installation using SSL verification tools (e.g., SSL Labs SSL Test).

    Step 6: Update Website and Services to HTTPS

    • Redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS to enforce secure browsing.
    • Update internal links, scripts, and third-party integrations to prevent mixed content warnings.
    • Reconfigure SayPro’s classifieds platform, e-commerce system, and payment gateways for SSL compatibility.

    Step 7: Monitor and Renew SSL Certificates

    • Set up automatic renewal if using Let’s Encrypt (via Certbot).
    • Maintain renewal reminders for paid SSL certificates to avoid expiration.
    • Continuously monitor SSL performance and vulnerabilities using security tools.

    3. Responsibilities of the SayPro Classified Office
