System SECURITY The 12-L Energy Efficiency TAX On-line System has been developed, using the concept of (WAMP) Windows-Appache-PHP-MySQL DataBasE and is currently hosted by Hetzner. In order to professionally secure this website, it was decided to apply for a SSL certificate for the current (to be revised), saneditax.org.za domain and this certificate has already been issued by Hetzner.
