If the server has a working 'https', then no additional ssl layer is needed.

The question is how had you in mind to execute the script?
Is this a script that anyone could execute?
Do you need to auth yourself to execute it?
wget is a tool that can be used.


Does the script need to be executed each X <timeunit>?
This should be able to be added to the schedule with help of a small batch
script where php.exe is used to execute the script.
