Create a Self-Signed Server Certificate in IIS 7

Applies To: Windows 7, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Vista

Create a self-signed certificate for a local computer for one or more of the following reasons:

  • Troubleshooting third-party certificate problems.

  • Managing IIS remotely.

  • Creating a secure private channel between your server and a limited, known group of users, such as that in a software test environment.

  • Testing features that rely on SSL settings.

Important

This procedure generates a self-signed certificate that does not originate from a generally trusted source; therefore, you should not use this certificate to help secure data transfers between Internet clients and your server.

Note

Self-signed certificates may cause your Web browser to issue phishing warnings.
