# Retrieve Information over SSL

The connector can retrieve pages from web sites accessed over HTTPS. You can include the following configuration parameters in your fetch task to customize SSL/TLS settings:

- To choose the SSL method that is used, set `SSLMethod`. If you do not specify an SSL method, the connector uses the most secure SSL method that is supported by the server.
- To specify trusted Certificate Authorities (CAs), and check that the site returns a valid certificate issued by one of the authorities, set `SSLCACertificate` or `SSLCACertificatesPath`, and then set `SSLCheckCertificate=TRUE`. By default the connector does not check certificates.
- To check the common name provided by a certificate, set `SSLCheckCommonName=TRUE`. The connector checks whether the host name listed in the site's certificate (that is, the CommonName or "CN" attribute) resolves to the same IP address as the site URL itself.
- To specify a client-side certificate set `SSLCertificate`. Specify the private key for the certificate with `SSLPrivateKey`. If a password is required for the private key file, set `SSLPrivateKeyPassword`.
