Description: Jenkins by default loads updates from http://updates.jenkins-ci.org/update-center.json. It should not be doing this over http and should instead use https by default. This URL should probably not even be accessible over http let alone have that being set as the default.  The URLs referred to within that file should also be https versions and not http.

Sonatype just got some bad press for fetching jars over http by default and has now changed to https (http://blog.ontoillogical.com/blog/2014/07/28/how-to-take-over-any-java-developer/). I think we should follow their lead.
