 * I have a AWS EC2 instance running WP v6.2 and I’m trying to install WP Encryption.
   Part of the steps are to upload the pem, crt, ca files via cPanel. However, my
   WP does not have it installed. It there another way to install WP encryption 
   without cPanel?

   the SSL cert generated in keys/ directory, please login via SSH console on AWS
   EC2 instance and follow our[ Apache Tutorial](https://wpencryption.com/install-ssl-for-apache-server/)
   to point **SSLCertificateFile **and** SSLCertificateKeyFile** to generated SSL
   certificate.
