Well, my analysis of the files (using the Linux "file") command seems to

Maven is a bit more than just a build tool as it's also a package
manager. It's showing its age a bit now as you can probably tell from
the fact is uses XML.
It's quite extraordinary just how massive the Java ecosystem is! There
are 225,964 unique artifacts indexed on Maven central!!
But I did find a Linux repository which worked on my Linux/Intel
Fedora system (see below). This came with all the files that I needed to
get the database server started. For the Community version, there basically
isn't much security. All you can do is allow access by creating an ID and
password. There is no way to "grant" any authorities, so everybody who is
defined to the system can do what they want with the data. {shudder}.
That's pretty much the same security model for all the NoSQL data bases
I've come across. Redis, MongoDB, Aerospike etc. In theory the database
servers should
be behind a firewall and secured but the reality can be quite shocking

Another {shudder}, at least for me, is that the design is "one graph
(database) per server". This has been complained about for years now and is
still a restriction. Of course, since you can have a ginormous graph
database, this is more a backup / recovery concern than a size concern.
