Hi, I secured my C* cluster by having "authenticator: org.apache.cassandra.auth.PasswordAuthenticator" in cassandra.yaml. I know it secures the CQL native interface running on port 9042 because my code uses such interface. Does this also secure the Thrift API interface running on port 9160? I searched around the web for answers but could not find any. I supposed I can write a sample application using Thrift API interface to confirm it, but wondering if I can get a quick answer from you experts.
Thanks. George.
