Below points will help to access midtier using https (secure). 

1.      Stop the tomcat - if it is up and running.
2.      Run Keytool Command (search for keytool.exe on box where tomcat 
running) to create a certificate keystore as mentioned below from command 
prompt on which tomcat/midtier is running.
>>keytool -genkey -alias tomcat -keyalg RSA -keystore \path\to\my\keystore file

NOTE: C:\Build\patch\keystore - C:\Build\patch\ is path and keystore is the 
file name
No need to create keystore file manually
Enter keystore password: changeit  (you can give any password)
Re-enter new password: changeit   (same password to be given here)

3.      Uncomment the "SSL HTTP/1.1 Connector" entry in 
$CATALINA_HOME/conf/server.xml and tweak as necessary.  

<Connector port="8443" protocol="HTTP/1.1" SSLEnabled="true"
               maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true"
               clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" 
keystoreFile="C:\Build\patch\keystore" KeyAlias="tomcat" 
KeystorePass="changeit"/>

4.      Restart tomcat
5.      Now access midtier with secured URL https://<midtiername>:8443

Hello

You need to generate SSL certificates or use a reverse proxy where SSL is 
terminated (the common option in enterprises). Lots of tutorials on both in 
Google.
