What do you like best about Wazuh - The Open Source Security Platform?

Wazuh offers cloud-based application monitoring & security solutions that effectively collect data, aggregate them, and analyze them through proper indexing. Its Wazuh agents are suitably fast & lightweight that provide good monitoring & response capabilities. They analyze OS & application logs and then transfer them to the central manager for system errors, misconfigurations, and policy violations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wazuh - The Open Source Security Platform?

You won't be able to access your environment deployed in the Wazuh cloud using SSH access, unlike AWS EC2 instances. This restricts various customization features at the infrastructure level, and also communications are passed only through Wazuh agents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Wazuh - The Open Source Security Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?
