Thanks for the review, Rich. The security services for RDAP are described in 
RFC 7481, where it says, " HTTP over TLS MUST be used to protect all 
client-server exchanges unless operational constraints make it impossible to 
meet this requirement.". I intend to submit a request to move 7481 from 
Proposed Standard status to Standard status shortly to keep these in synch.
