Securing the Farm with SSL
Server to Server communication within a SharePoint Farm can be extensive. In some instances, servers may not be inside of a physically secure data center, making an encrypted communication channel to protect data between servers important.
Securing the communication helps to mitigate reputational risks to the business and ensures that sensitive data is not compromised. It can also help to protect servers from malicious attacks and, depending in the type of business and data, ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.
