    Hello everyone,

    Can someone please explain to me how to enable SSL encryption for SQL server. I have no idea where to begin.
    Please be more specific because everything is still new to me.

    Hi there,

    I doubt you can do that, instead, you can enabled SSL for your IIS. Good luck & Take care.

        Hello again,

        I've been searching on google and I found out that before I can enabled SSL for IIS I have to request a certificate and now I'm totally confused can you tell me more about the Certificate.
        (i) What's the link between this Certificate and SSL
        (ii) How do I request this Cetificate
        (iii) How do I enable SSL for IIS

        Your responses will be highly appreciated

        Thanks
