Book: How to Configure Server Security
Revision: n_1415843_how-to-configure-server-security_version_6.4_edition_1.0_release_0-revision_1
Section: Configure the Management Console for HTTPS

Issue description:
There is "Anyone administering a JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6 instance has greater permissions on that instance than non-privileged users, and using HTTPS helps protect the integrity and availability of that instance." It is not obvious from surrounding text, how using HTTPS helps to protect either integrity or availability. The statement needs to be justified or removed.

Suggestions for improvement:
Remove the statement.
