This is not an Ignition problem to solve. The vast majority of the work involved in making an Ignition gateway accessible over the public internet is general IT knowledge that's not specific to Ignition. I'll also add that _if you do not know what you're doing_, it is **incredibly dangerous** to expose internal servers to the public internet. For **any** period of time. I would consider it an absolute requirement to have a public domain name, a valid SSL certificate, and HTTPS enabled before even considering exposing an Ignition gateway to the world. A safer option would be to set up a VPN, but even _knowing_ what your options are in this space is basically just fundamental IT knowledge. > **[Let's Encrypt Guide for Ignition](https://www.inductiveautomation.com/resources/article/lets-encrypt-guide-for-ignition)** > > Ignition 8.0.3 introduces support for hot-reloading the Gateway’s SSL keystore.
