-Wazuh notifier
+# Wazuh notifier
-Wazuh notifier enables the Wazuh user to be notified when selected events occur.
-It combines a customized custom-ar Python script (
-ref: https://documentation.wazuh.com/current/user-manual/capabilities/active-response/custom-active-response-scripts.html)
-with two notifier Python scripts: a Discord notifier and a NTFY.sh notifier.
+Wazuh notifier enables the Wazuh manager to be notified when selected events occur.
-It is a Stateless implementation and only notifies, using any or both of the messaging services.
+## Contents
-The ossec.conf configuration needs to include the following command and active-response configuration:
-
-
-linux-custom-ar
-custom-ar.py
-yes
-
+The main script is a custom active response Python script: wazuh-active-response.py.
+The actual sending of the messages is done by 2 notifier Python scripts:
+**Discord notifier**: wazuh-discord-notifier.py, and **NTFY.sh notifier**: wazuh-ntfy-notifier.py
+A YAML configuration: wazuh-notifier-config.yaml, and a Python module: wazuh_notifier_lib.py
+Wazuh notifier is a stateless implementation and only notifies, using the Discord and/or NTFY.sh messaging services.
+
+The Wazuh notifier is triggered by configuring the **ossec.conf** and adding an **active response configuration.**
+
+## Installation ##
+
+### Step 1 ###
+
+Download the files from https://github.com/RudiKlein/wazuh-notifier to your server.
+
+### Step 2 ###
+
+Copy the 4 Python files to the /var/ossec/active-response/bin/ folder
+
+```
+$ cp /wazuh-*.py /var/ossec/active-response/bin/
+```
+
+Set the correct ownership
+
+```
+$ chown root:wazuh /var/ossec/active-response/bin/wazuh-*.py
+```
+
+Set the correct permissions
+
+```
+$ chmod uog+rx /var/ossec/active-response/bin/wazuh-*.py
+```
+
+### Step 3 ###
+
+Copy the YAML file to /var/ossec/etc/
+
+```
+$ cp /wazuh-notifier-config.yaml /var/ossec/etc/
+```
+
+Set the correct ownership
+
+```
+$ chown root:wazuh /var/ossec/etc/wazuh-notifier-config.yaml
+```
+
+Set the correct permissions
+
+```
+$ chmod uog+r /var/ossec/etc/wazuh-notifier-config.yaml
+```
+
+### Step 4 ###
+
+Modify the ossec.conf configuration file and add the following
+
+```
+
+ wazuh-active-response
+ wazuh-active-response.py
+ yes
+
+```
+
+```
- no
- linux-custom-ar
- local
- 503
- 60
+ wazuh-active-response
+ server
+
+
-
+```
+
+Add the rules you want to be informed about between the , with the rules id's seperated by comma's.
+Example: 5402, 3461, 8777
+(Please refer to the Wazuh online documentation for more information [^Wazuh docs])
+
+[^Wazuh docs]: https://documentation.wazuh.com/current/user-manual/capabilities/active-response/index.html
+
+## The Active Response module ##
+
+The wazuh-active-response.py acts as the interface between Wazuh and the messaging notifiers for Discord and ntfy.
+It is based on the example active response Python script in the [^Wazuh docs].
+
+## The Discord notifier ##
+
+## The ntfy.sh notifier ##
+
+## The YAML configuration ##
+
+**Enable/disable the notifiers**
+
+```
+discord_enabled: 1 (0 if not set in the yaml configuration)
+ntfy_enabled: 1 (0 if not set in the yaml configuration)
+```
+
+**Exclude rules that are enabled in the ossec.conf active response definition.**
+This prevents the need to alter the ossec.conf for temporary rule disabling and stopping/starting wazuh-manager.
+Additionally, agents can also be excluded from notifications.
+
+```
+excluded_rules: "5401, 5402, 5403"
+excluded_agents: "999"
+```
+
+Default settings for the ntfy notifier. This overrules the hardcoded defaults.
+
+```
+ntfy_server: "https://ntfy.sh/"
+ntfy_sender: "Wazuh (IDS)"
+ntfy_destination: "__KleinTest"
+ntfy_priority: "5"
+ntfy_message: "Test message"
+ntfy_tags: "information, testing, yaml"
+ntfy_click: "https://google.com"
