"Wazuh has been my goto since it forked off of Ossec. By expanding the capabilities in threat detection and compliance management along with ease of customization, it is my one stop shop for XDR and SIEM rolled into one. I have honeypots scattered around the world with dozens of custom rules for unique alerts in my very custom honeypot configs."

Began my career as a Systems Programmer in the VAX and CDC world and have been user of Linux systems for decades. Currently run my own hosting company with 35 servers across 3 colocations, all with some form of Linux and virtualization and containerization. Wazuh deployed across all, with custom detection rules as honeypots are intermixed within production systems.
I have given numerous Honeypot customization workshops which includes custom Wazuh integration. I speak around the world at conferences and without exception I would say, Wazuh is in 100% of my talks. I’m always looking for ways to make it do more in my environments, which means I’m always active in my home lab.
