== Security
|
|
|
|
The {stack} {security-features} enable you to easily secure a cluster. With
|
|
security, you can
|
|
password-protect your data as well as implement more advanced security measures
|
|
such as encrypting communications, role-based access control, IP filtering, and
|
|
auditing. For more information, see
|
|
{stack-ov}/elasticsearch-security.html[Securing {es} and {kib}] and
|
|
<<using-kibana-with-security,Configuring Security in {kib}>>.

|
=== Users
|
|
|
|
You can create and manage users on the *Management -> Security -> Users* page.
|
|
You can also change their passwords and roles. For more information about
|
|
authentication and built-in users, see
|
|
{stack-ov}/setting-up-authentication.html[Setting up user authentication].
|
|
|
|
[float]
|
|
=== Roles
|
|
|
|
You can manage roles on the *Management -> Security -> Roles* page, or use
|
|
the <<role-management-api>>. For more information on configuring roles for {kib}, see <<xpack-security-authorization, Granting access to {kib}>>.
|
|
|
|
For a more holistic overview of configuring roles for the entire stack,
|
|
see {stack-ov}/authorization.html[Configuring role-based access control].
|
|
|
|
[NOTE]
|
|
============================================================================
|
|
Managing roles that grant <<kibana-privileges>> using the {es}
|
|
{ref}/security-api.html#security-role-apis[role management APIs] is not supported. Doing so will likely
|
|
cause Kibana's authorization to behave unexpectedly.
