Hi, I m using Elasticsearch-SG 7.0.1. My elasticsearch is running with cipher suites configured using `searchguard.ssl.http.enabled_ciphers`. How is the interaction of Kibana with ES happen? I have not configured any ciphers to Kibana but still Kibana is able to communicate with ciphers enabled ES. ---

I believe there are default ciphers. If you use TLS - a symmetric cipher is used. ---
