Security

The HDP Standard offering provides the following security measures:

  • Worker nodes do not have a public IP address to shield from public access.

  • Only client and management nodes are publicly accessible from the Internet.

  • The password for the Ambari UI is configured to a user specified value, not admin.

  • The HDP Standard offering does not have Kerberos enabled at deployment. You can enable Kerberos and secure the cluster post-deployment. Refer to the Ambari Security Guide for more information.

[Note]Note

Though not recommended, you can set the exposure of machine ports in the network security section for the deployed cluster in from the Azure Portal.
