Currently, its possible to use the security audit log to track changes to the security index when listening for
COMPLIANCE_INTERNAL_CONFIG_WRITE
events. Its also possible to combine this withconfig.compliance.enabled: true
,config.compliance.write_log_diffs: true
andconfig.compliance.write_metadata_only: false
to only capture the diffs for security index requests.The problem with this is that its not intuitive to configure and leaves cluster operators filtering the audit log for these types of events to figure out security config changes.
I'm opening this issue to spark a discussion about separating these config changes out to a separate place with the eventual goal of supporting rollback/rollforward in case a cluster operator wants to revert to the last previously known good cluster state.
