Once you’ve placed an order with Trustwave, you should be able to view its status here.
3) Read over the information below, if you want.
4) When ready, click here to purchase from Trustwave.
5) For the purpose of this tutorial, we will open this frame in its own tab.

6) Start by entering the host for which to make the certificate.
7) Then, enter your Full Name and Email Address.

Buying a Wildcard Certificate will allow the certificate to function on all your subdomains, and not just the domain entered above.
We’ll stick with a standard certificate.
13) Last, enter a Challenge Password to further secure our certificate. Make sure to put something you’ll remember but also strong.
If you have any questions or need technical support, Trustwave has a special 24x7x365 priority customer service line for cPanel customers. The number is shown below.
