I am using Kibana 6.5 version, I have some of the users who are modifying custom reports and bypassing the gates.
I need to make those reports read only to all the user and read/write to one user. how can we achive this?
I was reading about implementation of X-Pack but it needs to installed on both elastic and Kibana. is there any other way where only Kibana can be restricted? not elastic or logstash.
The only official supported way is enable Security in Kibana: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/using-kibana-with-security.html and then you can limit access depending on different spaces. There is no other supported way. There might be workaround when running behind a reverse proxy but they tend to be very error prone and usually won't survive a minor version update.
