Good afternoon everyone, warm greetings. I am writing to ask for your help. I am new and exploring the Wazuh tool. I need to create a new rule and decoder to detect a man-in-the-middle attack on a LAN network. I have tried to create it with AI, but every time I copy it to Wazuh, it generates errors. Thank you very much for your help.

Hello Walter, thank you for reaching out to the community.
  • Do you already have alert samples you need to work on in order to create the corresponding decoders and rules?. Would you like to share them?.
  • Are you already receiving the alerts on Wazuh?.
    You can determine this as follows:
    _ Set <logall_json>no</logall_json> to "yes" on /var/ossec/etc/ossec.conf
    _ Restart the Wazuh service, systemctl restart wazuh-manager.service
    _ Check on /var/ossec/logs/alerts/alerts.json for the events you are looking for.
    _ After confirming events are being received (or not), remember to revert logall_json to no
    _ If events and not available on the Manager, that would be the first troubleshooting step moving forward.
You will find a detailed explanation on how to work with decoders and rules on the links below:
