Use the glide.basicauth.required.databrokerrestapiprocessor property to require basic authorization for all inbound Data Broker Rest API requests.
If this property is set to true, then authorization is applied. If it is set to false, then no authorization is used which could lead to sensitive information being leaked from your instance.  
Warnung:  
This is a safe harbor property, meaning the value can't be altered once it's changed. It is non-revertible.
