Thanks for the confirmation @Quentin_Pradet . Yes, I realised that those tracks are not working in offline mode.

Hence started working on fixing my certificate issue of online mode. I was able to figure out the temporary workaround (also updated in [Max retries exceeded with url: /pmc/documents.json.bz2 SSLCertVerificationError [SSL: CERTIFICATE\_VERIFY\_FAILED] - #8 by Swathi\_Kakumanu](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/max-retries-exceeded-with-url-pmc-documents-json-bz2-sslcertverificationerror-ssl-certificate-verify-failed/335708/8)) for online mode. With that I am able to run security track in online mode.
