How to Generate an SSL Private Key in cPanel Print

  • ecdsa, private-key, rsa, ssl
  • 0

Use cPanel → Security → SSL/TLS → Private Keys (KEY) when manual key generation is required.

  1. Open the private-key manager.
  2. Select the desired supported key type and size where the interface provides those choices.
  3. Enter a useful description.
  4. Generate the key.
  5. Store any required backup securely.

Do not create extra private keys without a reason. For AutoSSL-managed sites, the automated certificate workflow normally handles key provisioning.
