Security and SSL

Understand HTTPS, secure defaults and the parts of website security you still control.

SSL and HTTPS

SSL protects information travelling between a visitor and your website. When it is active, the website uses HTTPS. Kiyo includes SSL and manages its normal setup and renewal as part of hosting.

Protection built into Kiyo

  • Secure hosting defaults
  • SSL and HTTPS
  • Security monitoring
  • DDoS protection designed to absorb or filter harmful traffic
  • Security insights through Kiyo Tools

What Kiyo handles automatically

Kiyo applies platform-level protection, monitors service health and keeps the essential security state visible. Advanced information remains available without becoming the default view.

What you still control

  • Use strong, unique passwords
  • Keep website software and extensions appropriate and current
  • Give account access only to people who need it
  • Review unexpected website changes and security alerts
  • Protect the email account used for Kiyo

No security system is an absolute guarantee
