On October 19, 2021, we have enabled single-sign-on for our Plesk Support Center to provide a seamless login/account experience. This implies that you’ll be able to use a single account across any of our web-facing properties.
If you had already registered your account at Plesk 360 (formerly known as My Plesk) please use one for login. Otherwise please re-register it using the same email address as your existing Zendesk login (support account). It’s essential that you use the same email address on our support center to ensure that your tickets stay attached to the same account.

Plesk IP address cannot be secured with a Let's Encrypt certificate, as Let's Encrypt does not support securing IP addresses. For more information, visit this Let's Encrypt thread.

In order to secure a Plesk IP address, it is required to purchase a certificate from Certificate Authorities that provide such an option. An example of such certificate is OrganizationSSL certificate by GlobalSign, which allows securing public IP addresses. The paid certificate can then be installed as per the KB article:
