Protect a JUCE application - OpenSSL binaries

I'm attempting to get this going on my self-hosted License Server.

Following the directions here.

Step 5 - install OpenSSL

When I look at the readme file in the provided link, it says:

INSTALLATION
------------

See the appropriate file:
INSTALL Linux, Unix, Windows, OpenVMS, ...
NOTES.* INSTALL addendums for different platforms

But no install notes are included. There are precompiled installers located here. Can we just use those? Also, on which machine do they need to be installed on? The license server, my workstation, the end user computer, all?

6. Copy the required binaries to your bin folder. On Windows, you will need:

libcrypto-1_1-x64.dll
libssl-1_1-x64

Which bin folder are we talking about? On the webserver? If so, which one

\Qlm\QlmCustomerPortal\qlm-portal-api\bin ? \Qlm\QlmCustomerSite\bin ? \Qlm\QlmLicenseServer\bin? \Qlm\QlmPortal\bin ?

The OpenSSL libraries are only required on the system where you install your application. They are not required on the License Server.

Please note that the License Server cannot be installed on Linux. Here are the requirements for installing the License Server.

The bin folder is the folder where you install the binaries associated with your own application. We're not referring to a QLM bin folder. If you do not have a bin folder, simply copy the files to the same folder as your own application.
