+## UC-07: Secure offline communication for home automation
+
+A user sets up a home automation gateway is under normal circumstances using HTTPS to securely accept commands via a remote server.

1. Yes, all communication to the remote server is via HTTPS.
2. In this case the most of the devices talking to the gateway are using other protocols, like Z-Wave and ZigBee (in our particular use case). Thus the question does not really apply. BUT as far as general encryption is concerned, we are striving towards having all channels encrypted. The "ethernet" side of the gateway should communicate via HTTPS everywhere, but  currently for APP<->Gateway directly this is not possible in a completely offline solution.
