Where can I send feedback about an Early Access title?

If you have any feedback about the product you're reading, or Early Access in general, then please fill out a contact form here and we'll make sure the feedback gets to the right team.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles?

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date?

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready?

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most.

Wer Wazuh als Open Source Produkt nutzen möchte, der findet in diesem Buch eine gute Anleitung mit vielen Beispielen, Tipps und Tricks. Natürlich finden man auch viele Howtos und Beschreibungen im Netz. In diesem Buch ist aber alles ausführlich beschrieben und gut strukturiert abgelegt. Ich habe bisher keine bessere Zusammenfassung gefunden. Wer sich auch eine Einführung des Autors über dieses Produkt als zweistündiges Video ansehen möchte, der findet dieses in den einschlägigen Portalen. Ich kann das Buch allen empfehlen, die sich mit dem Thema praxisnah auseinandersetzen wollen.

Für alle, die sich mit dem Thema SIEM und XDR neu konfrontiert sehen bildet das Buch einen gut strukturierten Einstieg in das Thema. Für alle die bereits Vorerfahrungen haben oder mit wazuh schon erste Erfahrungen haben, bietet das Buch an mancher Stelle noch die ein oder andere Inspiration, aber nichts, was man nicht in der Dokumentation oder dem git finden würde. Gegen Einsendung der Rechnung für das Paperback bekommt man bei packt eine pdf-Version des Buches.
