Report Builder accessed using https over internet

If you access the report builder application over the internet using a secure connection such as https://<report server name>/reportserver/reportbuilder/reportbuilder.application, will report builder communicate using https? If not, will the data being transferred to/from the report server be encrypted by some other method in the application?

Report Builder actually switches between http and https based on the web service method being called and whether ListSecureMethods indicates that https should be used. You can configure these settings on the report server.
