Hi everyone,

I'm completely new to Cassandra DB, so please do not roast me for asking obvious stuff.

I managed to setup one Cassandra node and enter some data to it, successfully. Next, I installed a second node, which connects to that first one via port 7000 and sync all that data from it. This worked fine as well.

But doing so, it leaves me puzzled a bit because of the security aspect of this: Neither did I need to authenticate to the seeding (first) node, nor did I find a resource which describes how to secure that cluster communication by implementing some kind of authentication, which prevents everyone on the same net to connect to the nodes.

How is this dealt with in Cassandra? Is setting up firewalls the only way to allow only some nodes to connect to the ports 7000/7001?

BR,
Marc
