Hello all,

I work with a tech company where we're trying to establish a pristine build 
environment for all of our products. As part of this, we are looking to 
create a Jenkins CI server from scratch using the most secure methods 
possible. This would be on an underlying CentOS 6.2 machine. From reading 
the guide on installing Jenkins on CentOS/RedHat I see that the package and 
the key are both obtained over http as - 

wget -O /etc/yum.repos.d/jenkins.repo 
http://pkg.jenkins-ci.org/redhat/jenkins.repo

and 

rpm --import http://pkg.jenkins-ci.org/redhat/jenkins-ci.org.key

This raises possibilities of a Man-in-the-middle attack compromising the 
integrity of the repo or the key or both. To avoid this, is there a way to 
obtain the package and the key securely? This could either be over HTTPS, 
SFTP or by exchanging PGP keys with the owner and then transporting it over 
email.

If there's a better place to post this question, please inform.

Thanks,
Abhijith
