We use Filebeat to ingest network logs. We're experimenting with threat feed ingestion, and would like to find matches between fields in our logs (say `destination.ip`) and entries in the threat feed. Is there a way to do this on the Free & Open tier? We don't need alterting capabilities (we do this with Elastalert).

If I'm not wrong the only way to do that is by creating a Threat Indicator security rule.

You can try the new ES|QL `LOOKUP JOIN` that will be available in the upcoming release.
