Builtin Security

This should not be used for Test or Production systems.

The Builtin Security Synchroniser allows user security principals to be retrieved from Elastic.

• Users will not be kept in sync with the master security source.

• Need to be manually modified, disabled, deleted as roles change.

• Elastic security principals are not mapped to anything beyond Elastic.

• Passwords are not verified against any account and password policies.

• Passwords can not be managed unless using Kibana.

The Builtin Security Synchroniser uses Elastic to manage and authenticate non-reserves users. The native security realm contains users managed directly by Elastic. In LDAP or oauth2, users are synchronised from a third-party system.

The plugin will synchronise all native Elastic users with the insightmaker_user role. Management of users is via a command line.
