Server

Step 1. Downloading the Image (Ubuntu Server) 💿

Wazuh developers prefer Ubuntu. Let’s follow their lead for fewer dependency issues.

  1. Download Ubuntu Server 24.04 LTS (or 22.04).

Step 2. OS Installation (Quick) ⚡

  1. Start the Ubuntu installation.
  2. Profile setup:
    • Your name: Vitaliy
    • Server name: wazuh-server
    • Username: user (or whatever you prefer)
    • Password: Choose something simple.
  3. Featured Server Snaps: Select nothing, just click Done.
  4. Wait for the installation to finish (Install complete!), then choose Reboot Now.
  5. Install:
sudo apt install openssh-server

Step 4. Installing Wazuh (One-Line Magic) 🪄

When the server boots up, log in (username/password).

curl -sO https://packages.wazuh.com/4.10/wazuh-install.sh && sudo bash ./wazuh-install.sh -a

🚀 Process started! The script will automatically download the Indexer (database), Server (brains), and Dashboard (web interface), generate certificates and passwords. This takes 5 to 15 minutes.

Installation Complete 🏁

When lines stop flowing in the console, the script will print in BOLD:

  • User: admin
  • Password: some-very-long-password MANDATORY: Copy and save this password to a text file right now! It’s hard to recover.
