title: Securely transfer a banch of files from one Heroku app to another
body: <p>I need to setup a Heroku app (python) which would perform scheduled tasks that include fetching a set of data (.csv an .html) files from other Heroku app (ROR) and returning a result back to that app. </p>
  
  <p>Also it should be restricted only to my app to be able to connect to the ROR app because it deals with sensitive information. There would be from 20 to 100 files each time so I want them to be compressed somehow to transfer them quiclky (to avoid bothering the server for too long).</p>
  
  <p>I'm interested in possible ways to accomplish it. The first thought is to send HTTP GET request to the ROR app and fetch the necessary files yet it generally not secured at all. Would SCP work in some way in this situation or you have any other ideas?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance!  </p>
