You can use a strict mapping for each index.

See [dynamic | Elasticsearch Guide [7.15] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/dynamic.html)

If you want to define this anytime a new index is created, you might have to create an index template.  
I'd recommend just applying the index template to your own indices and not the elastic internal indices.
