Why so many people are asking about Wazuh right now

Hello John,
Open source and IT security were long seen as a contradiction – now that NIS-2 is breathing down their necks, many people are taking a fresh look. This time it’s all about Wazuh and our brand-new partnership.
KNOW HOW
Wazuh – All your Security Events in One Place
That’s exactly what Wazuh promises – and we’re being asked about it remarkably often. Leander from Professional Services puts it into perspective:
- Four tools in one platform: log management, intrusion detection, vulnerability assessment and compliance checks.
- More than logs: file changes, vulnerability feeds and checks against PCI DSS, ISO 27001 or CIS are part of the picture too.
- No license costs: rules, dashboards and compliance checks are included — a real argument when the budget is tight.
Already familiar with Wazuh? Part 2 of the blog series takes a closer look at the modules – including Active Response, which automatically blocks an attacking IP with a firewall rule.
New: We’re now a Wazuh Platinum Partner
Platinum is the highest tier in the Wazuh partner program. For you, that mainly means one thing: if you’re planning a SIEM with Wazuh or already running one, you’ll be talking to people who work with it in depth — when designing the architecture, in day-to-day operations and whenever something gets stuck.
