You need to have OpenSSL in order to use / create digital certificate. You can either create and install self-signed certificate or generate keys - cert in order to get some CA authority certificate.

Also, before that I want you to understand about Digital Certificate. If you have clear info about then it is easy to understand. Follow the link below and also read about types of certificate there.
