When you host Elasticsearch on Elastic Cloud and send logs from Azure Cloud and Onprem Logstash instances, How is data encrypted while in transit and How is the data that is at rest encrypted?

Here are details about Elastic Cloud security, it's speak to data encryption in motion and at rest among many other items.

And here is some general security and compliance information

With respect to the ingest pipeline all beats and logstash support SSL / TLS for data in transit

Thanks for the reply. I would like to get help on what version of TLS encryption is available between **Logstash (Linux) to Elasticsearch on Elastic Cloud**  
and **Azure Logstash to Elasticsearch on ElasticCloud**
