About Wazuh Stack

Security monitoring is one of those things every growing team knows they need and few get around to setting up properly until after an incident. Intuz’s Wazuh AMI removes the excuse by putting a production-ready SIEM and XDR platform on Amazon EC2 in one click, with Wazuh Manager, Wazuh Dashboard, OpenSearch, Filebeat, and Grafana all pre-installed and wired together.

What makes this more than a log viewer is the combination of real-time threat detection, file integrity monitoring, and centralized log collection from servers, endpoints, and cloud resources, surfaced through pre-built Wazuh and Grafana dashboards rather than raw log dumps you have to make sense of yourself. If you’re building or documenting a healthcare or fintech application, compliance monitoring is built in for standards like PCI-DSS, HIPAA, GDPR, and CIS Benchmarks. If security monitoring is one piece of a larger compliance effort, making your healthcare app HIPAA compliant is worth reading alongside this.

Because the stack scales horizontally as your environment grows, teams often start this on a single EC2 instance to monitor a handful of servers, then expand coverage without re-architecting anything, just add more agents reporting into the same Wazuh Manager.

The paid stack includes Grafana specifically to turn the SOC hub into something more than a security tool, infrastructure performance visibility comes along with the security event data, which means the same dashboard your security team watches for anomalies can also flag a server running low on disk or CPU before it becomes an outage.

For teams that have been putting off centralized security monitoring because standing up OpenSearch and Filebeat from scratch felt like its own project, this AMI collapses that setup time from days to minutes.
