How To Install OpenSSL 1.1.1i in CentOS 8

In this article, we'll explain how to install OpenSSL 1.1.1i in CentOS 8.

OpenSSL is a robust, commercial-grade, and full-featured toolkit for the Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocols. OpenSSL is a software library for applications that secure communications over computer networks against eavesdropping or need to identify the party at the other end.

OpenSSL is licensed under an Apache-style license, which means that you are free to get and use it for commercial and non-commercial purposes subject to some simple license conditions. For a list of vulnerabilities, and the releases in which they were found and fixes, see our Vulnerabilities page.

Prerequisites
A CentOS 8 installed dedicated server or KVM VPS.
A root user access or normal user with administrative privileges.
