Description
If you've struggled setting up Kafka Security, or can't make sense of the documentation, this course is for youFirst of all, an insecure cluster is a big problem:anyone can read / write to any topic, and this can lead to bad data or data leakyou don't know who is connected to your clusterdata isn't encrypted in flight and could be intercepted by hackersIn this course, you'll learn Kafka Security, with Encryption (SSL), Authentication (SSL & SASL), and Authorization (ACL). Over 1800 students and 160 reviews later, we're convinced this course can save you a lot of time.----------------------------Kafka Security is important for the following reasons:Encryption (SSL) for Apache Kafka> Ensure data is securely transported from machine to machine> Prevent MIDM (man-in-the-middle attacks) on your Kafka Cluster> No more PLAINTEXT data going around in your networkAuthentication (SSL & SASL) for Apache Kafka > Ensure only clients with credentials can access your clusters> Give each of your clients a user-id, therefore enabling the possibility of controlling their access using ACLAuthorization (ACL) for Apache Kafka> Ensure the clients can only read / write topics based on administrator rules> Ensure clients cannot create / delete topics> Provide the audit team the guarantee that the cluster is secureHands On & Theory Based CourseNote: This course only deals with SSL for encryption & Authentication and SASL Kerberos, not other mechanisms. It also does provide an overview to enable security in a multi-broker setup, but that last part is left for the student to investigate and practice. This course is the first and only available Kafka Security Course on the web.
