Summary
In this chapter, we learned about Wazuh and its integration with the Suricata IDS to effectively detect anomalous traffic behavior. We started by exploring the Suricata IDS and its deployment method. We then covered the setup of Wazuh, the configuration of Suricata rules, and practical threat detection using DVWA. We then learned about testing Suricata rulesets using a tmNIDS tester.
In the next chapter, we will learn about the different malware detection capabilities of the Wazuh platform. We will also explore third-party integration for the purpose of detecting advanced malware files and signatures.
