Encryption at rest

Using the docker-compose.yml file found in the official Elastic documents: Install Elasticsearch with Docker | Elasticsearch Guide [8.9] | Elastic, is my data encryption at rest? Or do I need to add something to the environment variables?

Elasticsearch does not encrypt data, this needs to be done on the operating system level.

So in this case you would need to configure the encryption on the host docker level and make sure that the disks for the persistent volumes are encrypted, but how you will do that is out of the scope of this forum.
