**Step 4: Enable SSL security for the domain.**

**SSL (Secure Sockets Layer)** is a standard security technology for encrypted communication between a web server and a browser. We encourage you to enable SSL to protect personal information and ensure secure online interactions. For more details about SSL certificates, refer to the documentation provided [here.](https://wiki.matbao.net/ssl-la-gi-tong-quan-ve-ssl/)

**How to Enable SSL on ShopOne:**

Once the domain is successfully linked and verified, click the **Options** button and select **Enable SSL for non-www**.
