Hi,

We are currently using redis 6.0.6 to sit between logstash and Elasticsearch. Is there a way to create a keystore for user authentication between logstash and redis? At the moment we currently have the password set in the logstash indexer and logstash processor configuration files using "password =\>" but obviously this isn't very secure.

Thanks in advance.
