Azure redis - password in yml file

Dear all,

I could successfully set azure redis as output of filebeat. But I have some concerns in keeping password plain text in .yml file. Though ssl.enabled is set to true' and the n/w transmission is secured - keeping plain text password in .yml is treated as threat.

Any recommendations would be very helpful.

In logstash, ssl options itself is not there. I need to consume the data from redis @ logstash :frowning:

Hi Karthik,

We are actively working on having a safe-store for passwords in Filebeat.

As a first step, you can take a look at this pull request that allows storing obfuscated passwords in a local keystore.
