Answer 1

Looks like this did the trick:

@Component
public class TomcatCustomizer implements EmbeddedServletContainerCustomizer {

@Override
public void customize(ConfigurableEmbeddedServletContainer container) {
    TomcatEmbeddedServletContainerFactory tomcat = (TomcatEmbeddedServletContainerFactory) container;
    tomcat.addConnectorCustomizers(new TomcatConnectorCustomizer() {
        @Override
        public void customize(Connector connector) {
            connector.setSecure(true);  
        }
    });

}

}
