Hi Vijay, The document you pointed out has our initial thoughts on Kafka security. This work is still in design and discussion phase, no code has been written as such and we hope to pick it up in a couple months. However, if you have thoughts on how it should work and/or would like to contribute patches, we would be happy to collaborate with you.
