is there any additional function to prevent brute force attack?

  • Elastic search version : 6.5.2 Search guard: equivalent to Elastic search
  • Java 10 with MacOS

I just created log-in page (search-guard) for kibana.

after the creation, I have a question

is there any way(function) to prevent brute force attack in search guard?

(for example, if someone typed at least 5times incorrect password on my kibana log-in page, it should be locked for 30 secs

Moreover, infinite number of incorrection were typed then, the account has to be locked)

Depends on your authentication backend. For example with LDAP/AD this is no problem.
The internal authentication backend in Search Guard does not have such a functionality.
