Hello @SallySattary

Welcome to the community.

Without security , login was working fine.

Could you confirm which is the current behaviour 1 or 2 from below?

Post enabling security :

1. Login was working & it stopped suddenly.
2. It never worked after enabling security.

As you have enabled security could you please try below URL with user/password :

`curl -k -u elastic:password https://localhost:9200`

In Elasticsearch & Kibana logs do you see any errors?
