Hello,

There are a few ways of getting an SSL certificate.

  • You could create a DigitalOcean Load Balancer with SSL termination as per the instructions here:

https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/networking/load-balancers/how-to/ssl-termination/

  • If you already have a web server like Nginx, you could get a free Let’s Encrypt SSL by following the steps here:

Hope that this helps! Best, Bobby
