The collected logs stored are encrypted in the indexes path <CODE>C:\Program Files\Splunk\var\lib\splunk\Index_Name\db</CODE>, but need to encrypt traffic between the indexer and forwarder only and store log files as is in the indexer server (Clear text).<BR /> Is this possible ?</P> <P>Thanks.</P> Wed, 17 Jun 2015 07:42:42 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Is-it-possible-to-encrypt-traffic-between-the-forwarder-and/m-p/158854#M32226 hatemshaderma 2015-06-17T07:42:42Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Is-it-possible-to-encrypt-traffic-between-the-forwarder-and/m-p/158855#M32227 <P>Not really, the data in splunk is in a particular format (the splunk index/bucket file storage)<BR /> so it is not in clear.</P> <P>You could eventually export the result of search over the data in a "raw" format.
