Hi,

My project is to develop a security analysis service by ELK. For ingesting data, I pulled down the data through my local client and then use logstash to ingest data to es. When I start my local client, I need to put my username and the certificate file(.p12) to pass the authentication. So I am wondering if there is any way in es for me to integrate the input of user certificate within the application of es.
