Here's a question I couldn't find an answer to by searching the web.. How do I protect my data from being attacked by hostile sources? I mean.. does anyone who has my server's ip can just send a DELETE request and kill my index? I found solutions like reverse http and proxy servers. But is there no out of the box one? 10X 🙂 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

No, you can install just the proxy with the Chef cookbook, or you can extract the configuration and set up Nginx separately.
