Is there proof that this is secure? (ie that no information can be found on the plaintext when only having the ciphertext?) I'm hoping something of the like of "this is secure if AES is secure"

And I'll add to that that the number of ports is disappointing. I like their system of flexible ports, but they should really have made the module large enough to support 2 ports in one module. 4 ports total seems like the bare minimum

My understanding is that Amazon was not even making a closed source fork of ES, they were merely offering managed hosting of the open source version of ES. As Elastic is making money by selling hosting, they did not like the (admittedly unf

If they assume they have a magic place to put their unencrypted priceless data which guarantees the data will never be lost, they could simply encrypt everything and put the key in the magic place.

Great article! Thanks for adding the mention to Dashlane, I appreciate it. As a side note, since you are mentioning it, we use zxcvbn to check password strength and I hope we are going to add k-anonymity style checking for leaked passwords
