Is there any alternative to Mod_JK AJP which we can use as a secure connection between Apache and Tomcat?

I am currently using Mod_jk to have a connectivity between Apache and Tomcat through non-secure AJP protocol. Is there any way I can implement secure connection? Can I achieve this using mod_proxy_http and proxy over https? As far as I know using mod_proxy_http is also not a secure one.

Can anyone Guide me here? I am using Tomcat 9 and Apache 2.4 versions.

Thanks, Anshu

You can configure a secure connection between Apache and tomcat using Mod_proxy. Refer link1 and link2 for more information.
