Using the HTTPS protocol ensures that the configuration of all login credentials
(such as user names and passwords) are transmitted using an encrypted channel.
This includes those credentials used to communicate with third-party systems on
your network. Using the HTTPS protocol limits the ability of anyone monitoring traffic
on the network to discover these credentials.
