Import 1A root certificate - Windows 7

Microsoft has ceased security support for Windows 7 on 14 January 2020. This means that PCs running Windows 7 will no longer be safe to use.

Please contact your 1A partner to obtain a more recent operating system or a new PC.

This manual is for older systems and/or software and is no longer maintained.

This manual is meant for 1A-server users with a servername which ends in nl.alt001.com. This manual explains how you can install the alt001.com root certificate, so you can use the services on your 1A-server without certificate warnings.

Certificates are used to identify services and to encrypt the communication to and from the service. When a certificate is not trusted, this encryption will not work.

Every 1A-server contains an email server that accepts both encrypted and unencrypted connections. Because unencrypted servers are attacked more often, they will be phased out. Browsers also show a warning when an unknown certificate is used

Requirements

To complete this manual, you will need:

• Local Administrator permissions on the computer on which you want to install the certificate.
• The alt001.com root certificate
