 ===== Configure SSL =====
-  * Get
+To encrypt all connections between the users and Stages, we strongly recommend to configure SSL for the Stages server.
+  * Ask for a DNS alias for the server, e.g. "stages.company.com"
+  * Ask for a SSL certificate for the server which refers to the above alias. Depending on your local procedures, this might require creating a certificate request (see [[https://www.digicert.com/csr-ssl-installation/tomcat-keytool.htm|https://www.digicert.com/csr-ssl-installation/tomcat-keytool.htm]] for more info).
+  * Import the SSL certificate into a keystore (see link above for more info)
+  * Configure Tomcat to use this SSL certificate (see link above for more info)
+  * Configure a redirect from ports 80 and/or 8080 to the SSL port (typically 443 or 8443)
