I've got a question that I can't recall ever being addressed here.

Using https gets you encrypted/secure communication between your users' browsers and your web server. But what do you all typically do to secure communications between your web server and your WO app instances, especially when those instances are running on separate hardware? Do you have a private network behind your web server (i.e. between your web server and your WO servers)?

Ideally your app servers should be protected behind a firewall and only directly accessible by your web server through an internal network. If you do not trust the network between you web server and your app server you could tunnel the traffic using something like ipsec or openvpn.
