You can manage and authenticate users with the built-in `file` realm. With the `file` realm, users are defined in local files on each node in the cluster.

The `file` realm is useful as a fallback or recovery realm. For example in cases where the cluster is unresponsive or the security index is unavailable, or when you forget the password for your administrative users. In this type of scenario, the `file` realm is a convenient workaround: you can define a new `admin` user in the `file` realm and use it to log in and reset the credentials of all other users. For more information, see [file-based recovery](troubleshoot/elasticsearch/file-based-recovery.md).

The main {{stack}} {{security-features}} rely on the `security` [feature state](/deploy-manage/tools/snapshot-and-restore.md) which is mostly composed of the `.security*` [system indices](elasticsearch://reference/elasticsearch/rest-apis/api-conventions.md#system-indices). The `file` realm acts as a failsafe to expand this feature's functionality from the cluster level down to each individual node. The `file` realm cannot be managed using the cluster's [security APIs](https://www.elastic.co/docs/api/doc/elasticsearch/group/endpoint-security) nor using {{kib}} **Management > Security** pages.
