Hi Team,

I am planning to implement YARA to detect malware files. Since it is
not feasible to configure this manually for 50–100 users, could you
please provide a PowerShell script to automate the YARA configuration
and deployment?

Please let me know if any additional details are required from my side.--

Regards,
Narasimha

Hi,

Based on your requirement, I created a sample PowerShell script that downloads the required packages such as Python and the Visual C++. It also downloads the YARA rule set and configures the Wazuh agent Syscheck module to monitor the Downloads directory. I have attached the PowerShell script, and it is working fine on my end.

Before using it in production, I recommend testing it in a test environment first and confirming that it works as expected. I have attached a screenshot of my testing for your reference.

You can also refer to the Wazuh YARA configuration documentation for reference or to make modifications to the script.
