# Wazuh notifier Wazuh notifier enables the Wazuh manager to be notified when selected events occur. ## Contents 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 ``` ``` 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" ```
