Do you manage the host/machine where the website is located? If yes you must be sure that incoming connections for the website are allowed on port 443. If not, nothing to do.

Vendor website sent an email regarding upcoming data center changes. &nbsp;The email says &quot;&nbsp;IT department will need to open port 443 to enable https to our new sites&quot;<br />
<br />
We use a fortigate 60d. &nbsp;HTTPs seems to be already enabled for all sites, although I don't see any policy for this. &nbsp; &nbsp;At this point I am not going to add this for our vendors new site. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
In any case, for my understanding Is there a place in the firewall where https is enabled for all by default?

Hardware-based firewalls provide more sophisticated protection for inbound and outbound traffic than the simple Windows software firewall or the basic NAT firewalls found in routers. These devices implement techniques such as stateful packet inspection, deep packet inspection, and content filtering; and may include built-in antivirus and anti-malware protection.
