Now that LDAP supports an
insecureSkipVerify
option, clarify thatinsecureNoTLS
is an extremely bad choice and as such we may dropsupport for 389 in the future.
However, since we send plain text passwords from our frontend to our
backend, this probably gets us into a bigger conversation about dex's
TLS story. For example when terminiation is approporate. cc'ing
@dghubble for thoughts on how that might apply to our internal uses.
We probably want an overaching security doc at some point, but that
can be another PR.
cc @ElijahCaine since this is a docs review.
