Wazuh SIEM

Wazuh SIEM is a high-performance, open-source Security Information and Event Management solution engineered to provide real-time log ingestion, security analytics, regulatory compliance auditing, and threat detection across heterogeneous IT infrastructures. Designed to provide full SIEM capabilities without proprietary licensing fees, Wazuh aggregates and normalizes security events from endpoints, network equipment, and cloud services.

The platform combines distributed Wazuh Agents, log decoders, a rules engine, and OpenSearch indexing to correlate disparate security telemetry. Core capabilities include automated log collection from syslog forwarders, Windows Event Logs, and Linux auditd, real-time threat detection mapped to the MITRE ATT&CK framework, file integrity monitoring (FIM), anomaly and rootkit detection, out-of-the-box compliance dashboards (pre-mapped to PCI-DSS, HIPAA, GDPR, and NIST 800-53), and automated alert dispatching. Its scalable clustering architecture easily accommodates petabyte-scale event pipelines.

Mid-market enterprises, universities, and government agencies implement Wazuh SIEM to establish comprehensive security operations visibility and pass regulatory audits. The platform integrates smoothly with AWS CloudTrail, Microsoft 365, Docker, Kubernetes, and enterprise ticketing platforms. Common enterprise use cases include detecting unauthorized administrative privilege elevation, tracking file access on sensitive database servers, monitoring perimeter firewall traffic for suspicious connections, investigating security incidents, and maintaining tamper-proof historical audit logs for compliance officers.
