Store my SSL/TLS certification in AWS Certificate Manager

Now, we deployed our webpage in S3, so let's publish it with SSL certified domain. I am a graduate student so I was provided free 2 domain names from name.com. I use name.com domain because they give you free SSL/TLS certification to protect your website securely.

After acquiring domain name, you can click Active SSL to issue certificate.

To issue SSL/TLS certificate, you need to issue CSR. I used this website to issue simply. Keep in mind that you should never lose this CSR private key.

Then after few minutes of verification, you will receive an email with .crt files with Certification.

Let's go to ACM.

You need to fill in this 3 parts.

• Certification Body: you can find either from name.com or inside of email
• Certificate private key: CSR that I put bold above
• Certificate chain: Since we downloaded .crt files from email, I run this command to make a chain. Then, paste certificat_chain.crt in this section.

cat SectigoRSADomainValidationSecureServerCA.crt USERTrustRSAAAACA.crt > certificate_chain.crt

After successfully imported, you can find your Certification is showing your domain properly.

Connect CloudFront with SSL enabled domain

We need to create distribution.

You can select your s3 bucket for origin, and click Use web endpoint, then it will change into

like this.

Since we imported custom certification above, we can check that it shows up under here. So select this to connect.

After successfully creation,

The blue box and red box are important. I had issue with missing Alternate domain names. After filling in, I could successfully connect my CloudFront.

When it's successfully deployed, we can see our website anywhere!
