Hi,

As written here:
http://docs.confluent.io/3.1.2/connect/security.html#acl-considerations
"Note that if you are using SASL for authentication, you must use the same
principal for workers and connectors as only a single JAAS is currently
supported on the client side at this time as described here
<http://docs.confluent.io/3.1.2/kafka/sasl.html#kafka-sasl>."

I think other components share the same concern (Kafka Rest proxy notably).

It’s a bit of security risk to have the connect cluster write to several
topics while each connector’s config concern is usually to only write to a
few. Passing a specific jaas or login as part of the config would I think
resolve that problem.

Are there any KIPs or roadmaps in place to properly isolate security
concerns?

Thanks in advance

Best regards,
Stephane
