We should probably add SSL support to protect against packet-sniffing shenanigans.

@philbrondyke related to this, do you guys have a URL in mind for this transcriber tool to live? And do you have an SSL certificate for it?

philbrondyke commented 9 years ago

Will check on this, but the likely home is our Open Election Data Initiative, hypothetically http://openelectiondata.net/en/tools/transcriber.

To my knowledge we don't have certificates yet but we should get them.

@philbrondyke and @naskida for deployment and code separation purposes, it would be easiest to have the site hosted on a subdomain like https://transcriber.openelectiondata.net.

Would that be possible? You would need what they call a 'wildcard SSL' certificate that works for an entire domain, including subdomains.
