3) Questions and Answers : Wish list : Switch to HTTPS (TLS/SSL) for main project URL (Message 70465) Posted 28 Jan 2021 by gQuigs Post: This would ensure no information is transmitted in the plain text and reduce the attack possibilities against client computers. (I know a lot of info is already transmitted encrypted) From a client side it will just alert people to change the URL at their convenience, they should: 1. Set No New Tasks to finish work. 2. Finish work 3. Detach 4. Reattach using HTTPS. Happy to help!
