(With secure reverse proxy, the proxy acts as a origin server (web
server) and is seen as such by the browser. A SSL  connection is
established between the browser and the proxy. Traffic is decrypted on
the proxy then another SSL connection is established between the proxy
and the origin server (web server)).



What's so "secure" about that?
