    encryption 101

    Hi,
    i am trying to understand the encryption process and would appreciate the help.
    i want to encrypt connection between agents and host, and i want to be able to make it automatic for all new added agents.
    1. psk - if i use this, do i need to create a key for every agent ?
    2. cert - same question as above.
    what is the correct way and also assuming that i want to add hosts automatically using discovery rules.

    10x.

    psk - you can use same for all agents.
    cert - It would be correct to have one for each, but its quite a pain to maintain... If you already have somekind of infra which distributes and maintains certs for each server, you can utilize those.. But tbh, I have not used those.

    Discovery rules suck, autoregistration is much better option.
