Abstract: The increasing sophistication of cybersecurity threats necessitates prompt detection and response by enterprises. An open-source security platform called Wazuh aids in efficient threat monitoring. Protecting vital systems and data requires effective threat detection, monitoring, and response.Among other things, it offers capabilities for malware detection, integrity checks, and log gathering. Conventional security solutions frequently operate independently, which might result in sluggish reactions and insufficient insights. In order to solve this, Wazuh offers a single platform that incorporates essential security functionalities like configuration evaluation, log analysis, intrusion detection, and vulnerability management. The major components of Wazuh—server, indexer, and dashboard—as well as how it gathers, analyzes, and presents data are described in this paper. Wazuh's modular design makes it simple to integrate with other platforms offering real-time detection and actionable insights to tackle modern security challenges
Keywords: Wazuh, web-server, network, security, monitoring, attack.
