In the Internet era, in order to protect the sensitive data of users and users, the encryption protocol https came into being. For ** on the cloud server, setting HTTPS helps to ensure the security of data transmission. Can I set HTTPS for an ECS without an ICP filing?This is the score situation.
First, let's understand what an ICP filing is. ICP filing usually refers to ICP filing, that is, the basic information of ** is submitted to the competent authority for review and the filing number is obtained. ICP filing requirements are for host servers in data centers in Chinese mainland, while host servers in Hong Kong, the United States and other regions do not need to file for ICP filings.
Next, let's answer the question of whether HTTPS can be set up for the ECS without ICP filing.
1.Domestic Cloud Server:
For ECSs with data centers in the mainland, you need to complete the ICP filing before deploying the SSL certificate. This is because even if the SSL certificate is configured before the ICP filing is configured, it cannot be opened without an ICP filing.
The data center is a cloud server in Hong Kong and other special administrative regions, which does not need to be filed and is ready to use. Therefore, this kind of cloud server does not have an ICP filing and supports the deployment of SSL certificates, such as the Hong Kong cloud server of Western Digital, which is exempt from ICP filing and supports SSL.
2.Foreign cloud servers.
Foreign ECSs are not subject to the requirements of the domestic ICP filing, and do not need to be filed after they are activated. If a foreign ECS does not have an ICP filing, SSL certificates can be deployed.
In short, whether an ECS can set HTTPS without an ICP filing depends on the region where the ECS is located, policy requirements, and the ECS vendor, and the actual situation prevails. If you are not sure about this kind of problem, you can consult the cloud server provider.
