# TLS Certificates
# Overview
In AI Studio Platform, TLS certificates are used to provide secure connections for its internal components. The following will guide you on how to create new or redeploy or rotate your platform's TLS certificate.
Redeploying TLS certificate is process of replacing the currently used TLS certificate with a new issued certificate, and it should be planned well before certificates expire or in the case of a certificate is being compromised.
# Requirements
- kubectl utilily and administrative access to the Kubernetes cluster
- Wildcard TLS certificate for your domain (for each cluster).
# Kubernetes TLS Secret
First, we will need to create a Kubernetes TLS secret from the TLS certificate and key files.
kubectl -n cnvrg create secret tls my-tls-secret \
--cert=path/to/cert/file \
--key=path/to/key/file
