Which Elasticsearch feature is primarily responsible for encrypting data during node-to-node communication?
Which Elasticsearch feature is primarily responsible for encrypting data during node-to-node communication?
easy🧠 Conceptual Q2 of Q15
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Identify encryption during node communication
Encryption in transit protects data moving between nodes.Step 2: Recognize the technology used
Elasticsearch uses TLS to encrypt transport layer communication between nodes.Final Answer:
Transport Layer Security (TLS) -> Option BQuick Check:
Encryption in transit = TLS encryption [OK]
Quick Trick: TLS encrypts data moving between Elasticsearch nodes [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES- Confusing snapshot encryption with transport encryption
- Thinking index compression encrypts data
- Assuming field-level encryption covers node communication
