Actually I believe its the opposite. Apache serves the certificate the communication between Tomcat and Apache shouldnt be public anyway.


Apache makes the SSL handshake and passes any client certificate to Tomcat. Any servlet sees that like it came directly from Tomcat. Communication between apache and tomcat is not encrypted, so if you are concerned about the security, put the apache on the box with two NIC cards, and use the second for the apache-tomcat communication.

AJP14 protocol will have encryption embedded, so until then :).
