Hi.
Either to purchase a certificate or get a free public SSL certificate. A friend wrote earlier about startssl.com giving out free SSL certificates.

If you already have a wildcard certificate for your company (ex. *.company.com) then you can re-use the same certificate and just choose a subdomain (ex. adfstest.company.com).
If not, you need to purchase a certificate.
