We need to add a description for a new plugin which will provide support for client side encryption in OpenSearch. This is a placeholder issue and doc content will be updated later.

Adding both Chris and Fanit since this could fit either security or client documentation.

@Naarcha-AWS I don't think this is specific to clients. I think this relates to encryption of data on the client side for OpenSearch in general.

Moved to 2.10

Development team is currently refining the plugin for OpenSearch applications. No documentation needed for 2.10.

Hi @vikasvb90 , is this doc issue still relevant or should I close it? Is it related to opensearch-project/OpenSearch#5800?

[vikasvb90]

We can close this. Thanks @hdhalter !
