Datafari enterprise edition comes out of the box with the possibility to enable the SSL protocol. This protocol allows to strongly encrypt the data transfert between different systems.
This section describes how to configure HTTPS/SSL on the different components of Datafari, and also explains how to update your certificate. For technical explanations on why and how it works, please check /wiki/spaces/DATAFARI/pages/564625505
The protocol is used on Datafari, Solr, and Kibana which are, according to us, the critical parts of the product concerning the data. Unfortunately, Elasticsearch does not provide a simple way to use the SSL protocol , so either you have to purchase their "Shield" extension which provides a very easy way to implement security for ES, either you have to manually configure a proxy server.
The following documentation describes how the SSL protocol has been implemented and how you can configure it to fits with your needs.
