Wazuh is an open-source security monitoring platform that can help to detect threats, maintain integrity and ensure compliance.
Installing Wazuh as an OVA (Open Virtual Appliance) is a useful method for setting up a Wazuh system within a virtualised environment.
To install Wazuh as an OVA you need to follow certain steps: download the correct OVA file, import the file to your virtualization platform, configure the virtual machine’s settings, start the machine and finally access the web interface for the Wazuh platform.
The benefits of using Wazuh include enhanced security through centralized logging and the ability to set up custom rules and alerts.
It is essential to ensure that there is a high level of security around Wazuh management systems, whereby only certain individuals are granted administrative privileges in order to reduce the risk of malicious activity.
