Answer 1

That is the default behavior. to change this, you have a few options:

You can remove the Spring Boot Security dependency:

org.springframework.boot
spring-boot-starter-security

You can desable autoconfiguration. To do so; in your main class, to: @SpringBootApplication append: (exclude = { SecurityAutoConfiguration.class }) so that it looks like:

   @SpringBootApplication(exclude = { SecurityAutoConfiguration.class })
   public static void main(String[] args) {
            SpringApplication.run(SpringBootSecurityApplication.class, args);
        }
    }

you can also do this from the application.properties file
