These steps are only required for **self-managed** deployments:

* HTTPS must be configured for communication between [{{es}} and {{kib}}](/deploy-manage/security/set-up-basic-security-plus-https.md#encrypt-kibana-http).
* In the `elasticsearch.yml` configuration file, set the `xpack.security.enabled` setting to `true`. For more information, refer to [Configuring {{es}}](/deploy-manage/deploy/self-managed/configure-elasticsearch.md) and [Security settings in {{es}}](elasticsearch://reference/elasticsearch/configuration-reference/security-settings.md).
* In [`kibana.yml`](/deploy-manage/stack-settings.md), add the `xpack.encryptedSavedObjects.encryptionKey` setting with any alphanumeric value of at least 32 characters. For example:
* In [`kibana.yml`](/deploy-manage/stack-settings.md):

Add the `xpack.encryptedSavedObjects.encryptionKey` setting with any alphanumeric value of at least 32 characters. For example:

`xpack.encryptedSavedObjects.encryptionKey: 'fhjskloppd678ehkdfdlliverpoolfcr'`

* In [`elasticsearch.yml`](/deploy-manage/deploy/self-managed/configure-elasticsearch.md):
* Set the `xpack.security.enabled` setting to `true`. Refer to [General security settings](elasticsearch://reference/elasticsearch/configuration-reference/security-settings.md#general-security-settings) for more information.
* Remove the line `search.allow_expensive_queries=false` if you find it. The `search.allow_expensive_queries` setting must be left on its default value of `true` for key detection features like [alerting rules](https://www.elastic.co/docs/explore-analyze/alerts-cases/alerts/alerting-setup#alerting-prerequisites) and rule exceptions to work.


::::{important}
After changing the `xpack.encryptedSavedObjects.encryptionKey` value and restarting {{kib}}, you must restart all detection rules.
