I've a question about S3 input plugin which I can't find any answer in the Logstash documentation site.

Does the S3 input plugin download events over secure communication protocol?

As the events I'm downloading from S3 bucket contains sensitive information, I'd like to know is it secured over the wire just like HTTPS. Thanks in advance for any help in this question.
