Hello Monesh,

To change the admin password that you use for login to the web interface. Run this command on your indexer server

Open a terminal on your Wazuh indexer server and run this command.

bash /usr/share/wazuh-indexer/plugins/opensearch-security/tools/wazuh-passwords-tool.sh -u admin -p Secr3tP4ssw*rd

Replace the Secr3tP4ssw*rd with your password.

The password must have a length between 8 and 64 characters and contain at least one upper case letter, one lower case letter, a number and one of the following symbols: .*+?-.

Ref: Password management
If you use the tool in an all-in-one deployment (all components of Wazuh installed on the same server), it automatically updates the passwords where necessary. If you use it in a distributed environment, you may have to update the password on other components.

For admin users, you just need to update the password in the filebeat and Wazuh manager’s keystore.

Open a terminal on the Wazuh manager keystore and run this command.

echo <ADMIN_PASSWORD> | filebeat keystore add password --stdin --force

echo '<ADMIN_PASSWORD>' | /var/ossec/bin/wazuh-keystore -f indexer -k password

Restart Filebeat to apply the changes.

systemctl restart filebeat

See Changing the passwords in a distributed environment for more details.

Read this document if you want to change the other users.

Let me know if this works for you or if you need any further help with this.
