Description
### Description
While dumping data from our production cluster to a local cluster for troubleshooting purpose, I realised that it might be interesting to have a detection for large unusual data export from elasticsearch.
I'm not sure what rule type it could be (threshold, ESQL, ML, ...). It could be one or many rules.
It could be interesting to reference this rule when elasticsearch is hitting the news for massive data leakage (due to poorly configured elasticsearch).
