Wazuh

What it does: Wazuh unifies XDR and SIEM to analyze security data across endpoints, clouds, and networks for threat detection, incident response, and compliance.
Threat detection: Its rules detect errors, misconfigurations, malicious activity, and policy violations in operating system and application logs.
File integrity: File Integrity Monitoring tracks file content, permissions, ownership, and attribute changes.
Vulnerability detection: Wazuh correlates endpoint software inventory with updated CVE databases to identify known vulnerable software.
Incident response: Built-in active responses can take countermeasures such as blocking network access from a threat source.
Cloud integrations: Wazuh can monitor AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, Microsoft 365, and GitHub services, virtual machines, and activity.
Other integrations: The integrations guide covers Elastic Stack, OpenSearch, Splunk, and Amazon Security Lake.
Compliance support: Default rulesets support PCI DSS, HIPAA, NIST 800-53, TSC, and GDPR mappings, but Wazuh states these mappings do not by themselves certify compliance.
Cloud security: Wazuh Cloud says it is compliant with PCI DSS and SOC 2 and independently audited to meet those standards.
Support: Wazuh offers free community support as well as support services and professional hours for Cloud environments.
Cloud service: Wazuh Cloud environments are updated to the latest Wazuh version without manual maintenance or upgrades by the customer.
Agent requirements: The Wazuh agent supports Linux, Windows, macOS, Solaris, AIX, and HP-UX and requires an average of 35 MB of RAM.
Intended users: Wazuh says its platform is used by organizations ranging from small businesses to large enterprises, as well as individuals.
