Hello, I'm trying to verify that Java Security Manager is enabled by default in oss images, particularly in:

- [docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-oss:6.6.2](http://docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-oss:6.6.2)
- and [docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-oss:6.2.4](http://docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-oss:6.2.4)

I see conflicting information online about whether it's always enabled or not. How can we verify?

Thank you,  
Travis
