Enable HTTPS on IRIS Servers #37

Open mgallagher01 opened 2 years ago

mgallagher01 commented 2 years ago

As we look at adding more web-like services (video pages, etc.) to IRIS servers, we should start deploying HTTPS. This will ultimately be a requirement for our clients, so we may as well start to get out in front of it.

I've used the Let's Encrypt Certbot on a server, and it doesn't seem to be that bad to set up. Nginx has plugins/support for it, so I think we should start looking there.

Maybe this should be part of the overall IRIS setup & we should discuss with Doug.

A quick look through the Let's Encrypt docs doesn't seem to indicate that there are any restrictions on using certbot. I think it's probably time to get this rolling on IRIS servers.
