Hello,

During the 2013 Black Hat conference , researchers announced the 
BREACH<http://breachattack.com/resources/BREACH - SSL, gone in 30 seconds.pdf> 
attack. 
As BREACH takes advantage of vulnerabilities when serving compressed data 
over SSL/TLS, its been advised to disable compression of web responses. 

I see this  holds true for nodejs applications as well as we by practice 
always  enable http compression.

Do refer  https://www.blackhat.com/us-13/briefings.html#Prado for more 
details

Regards,
Chris Wakare
