Currently the structure I have is made up of a cluster with Elasticsearch nodes, which take snapshots and are saved in their corresponding repository. This data is later sent to an already encrypted Ceph bucket. Is there a possibility of saving that snapshot already encrypted in Elastic or encrypting the repository, so that when I send the data to Ceph it is already encrypted?  
My version is: v7.17.5

Thanks
