HTTPS for added security
By default REM runs over HTTP. If additional security is required, there are a couple ways in which REM can be run over HTTPS.
Changing Jetty to Use HTTPS
To enable HTTPS, open the start.ini file in the REM home directory and add the ssl and https modules:
+--module=ssl+--module=httpsYou will also need to provide or create a proper web keystore (by default
located at etc/keystore inside the main rhino-element-manager directory).
-
For more detailed instructions on creating a keystore and configuring HTTPS in Jetty, see the Jetty 12 documentation.
Running REM behind Apache
If you have an existing Apache installation that is already configured to use HTTPS, then you may wish to serve REM through that.
The setup can be a bit complicated on the Apache side and a couple different options are available.

For detailed instructions see the Jetty 12 documentation for guidance on proxying Jetty behind Apache.
