Multicloud Elastic Search

These are the main benefits of fine - grained access control in ElasticSearch: 

• Resource - level permissions:
• Fine-tune access at indices, documents, and fields;
• Ensure users or applications only access the necessary data.
• Role - based access control:
  • Define roles that specify permissions for various actions such as read, write, and manage on specific resources.
  • Assign users roles based on their job functions or responsibilities, making it easier to manage permissions across large teams.
• Document and field-level security:
• Control access at the document and field level, ensuring that sensitive data is protected even within the same index.
• This level of control helps you comply with data privacy and protection regulations.
• API key management:
• Securely manage access with API keys to provide secure and manageable access to ElasticSearch resources.
• Create API keys with specific roles and permissions for external applications and services.
• Audit logging:
• Monitor access and changes to data and resources.
• Identify security issues and maintain compliance with regulatory requirements.
• Tenant Isolation:
• Create isolated environments within a single ElasticSearch cluster.
• Ideal for SaaS providers or organizations with multiple departments or teams using the same cluster.
• Kibana integration:
• Seamlessly integrate with Kibana (the visualization and management tool for ElasticSearch) to provide secure, customized user experiences.
• Role-based permissions can control access to specific Kibana features and visualizations.
