-### Security
+### Container Security
 
 See parent [configuration](https://github.com/behance/docker-base#security)
 
 
+### HTTPS usage
+
+To enable this container to serve HTTPS over its primary exposed port:
+- `SERVER_ENABLE_HTTPS` environment variable must be `true`
+- Certificates must be present in `/etc/nginx/certs` under the following names:
+    - `ca.crt`
+    - `ca.key`
+- Additionally, they must be marked read-only (0600)
+
+#### Local development usage
+
+To generate a self-signed certificate (won't work in most browsers):
+```
+openssl genrsa -out ca.key 2048
+openssl req -new -key ca.key -out ca.csr -subj '/CN=localhost'
+openssl x509 -req -days 365 -in ca.csr -signkey ca.key -out ca.crt
+```
+
+Run the image in background, bind external port (443), flag HTTPS enabled, mount certificate:
+```
+docker run \
+  -d
+  -p 443:8080 \
+  -e SERVER_ENABLE_HTTPS=true \
+  -v {directory-containing-ca.crt-and-ca.key}:/etc/nginx/certs:ro
+  behance/docker-nginx
+```
+
+Test
+```
+curl -k -vvv https://{your-docker-machine-ip}
+```
