Hi everyone, good afternoon.
I made a mistake and changed the Owner and permissions of the directory
/var/ossec/.
Could someone tell me what the correct settings are?
I'm using Ubuntu and I did the installation from here:
https://documentation.wazuh.com/current/installation-guide/index.html
Everything is on the same server. Thanks!!!

Hello Farah,
The ossec folder permissions contain ownership of root:wazuh with mod 750. Please see attached for reference.
chmod 750 /var/ossec
chown root:wazuh /var/ossec
Regards,
