Use the HAProxy load balancer to redirect users from HTTP to HTTPS automatically. For decades, our lives have become increasingly dependent on sending and receiving data from across the Internet. Now, with more people working, studying, and hanging with friends remotely, that trend is showing an uptick. Yet, adversaries seem to be grasping at that communication from every direction.

Continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines have become fundamental to modern software development and code deployment.
