An unknown certificate on my IIS server.
Hello,
I am looking at a Windows 2012 IIS server and I see a certificate WMSvc-myiisserver that has an expiration date of 1/20/2015 and it is using SHA1.
I do not recall I ever deploy that certificate on the server.
Would someone advise if that cert is always there by default? Where do I go to see the vendor of that certificate?
Please see the attached.
Thanks.

That's a self-signed certificate. If you go to the General tab and look at the "Issued by" line, it will show the local server name. It is an internally-generated certificate for the website management services.

The cert is on sha1. How can that be upgraded to sha2?
What is this self-signed for?
