How to Resolve Manually
Load Balancer Listeners are normally the first thing to configure when creating a new Classic Load Balancer. To ensure you are compliant with this rule, ensure you are using HTTPS (Standard Port 443) instead of the less secure HTTP (Standard Port 80) as a Listener.
Listeners can be re-configured after construction and you should always try to move from HTTP to HTTPS at your earliest convenience as the latter if a far more secure protocol.
