The [Set up encryption using Let's Encrypt](/blog/2015/12/13/setup-encryption-using-lets-encrypt/) blog post gives you details about the encryption of your traffic using free certificates from [Let's Encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/).
Or use a self signed certificate following the instructions here [Self-signed certificate for SSL/TLS](/docs/ecosystem/certificates/tls_self_signed_certificate/)
On top of the `http` component is a [REST API](/developers/rest_api/) and a [Python API](/developers/python_api/) available. There is also support for [Server-sent events](/developers/server_sent_events/).
The `http` platforms are not real platforms within the meaning of the terminology used around Home Assistant. Home Assistant's [REST API](/developers/rest_api/) sends and receives messages over HTTP.
