On June 8th 2015, the White House issued policy that all publicly accessible government websites and web services only provide service through a secure connection by December 31, 2016. This policy applies to publicly accessible websites and web services ‘that that 'are maintained in whole or in part by the Federal Government and operated by an agency, contractor, or other organization on behalf of the agency’agency.’ All web browsing should be conducted using https only, secured via Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption. This requires use of TLS/SSL certificates for web sites and web services.  

The use of HTTPS is encouraged on intranets, but is not explicitly required.  Newly developed websites and services at all Federal agency domains or sub-domains must adhere to the White House issued policy.
