Automated Wazuh Security Rule Deployment and Validation

This n8n workflow automates the process of validating, deploying, and managing Wazuh security rules triggered by updates in a GitHub repository. It ensures that new rules are correctly validated, deployed seamlessly to the Wazuh manager, and confirms successful deployment, all while providing real-time notifications.

The workflow begins with a GitHub trigger monitoring for changes or commits. When changes are detected, it extracts the changed files and downloads the updated security rules via HTTP request. These rules are then uploaded to the Wazuh server using SSH for deployment. The process includes validation checks to ensure deployments are successful, and if an issue occurs, it notifies the team via Telegram, providing immediate alerts for failures.

Additionally, the workflow can restart the Wazuh manager after deployment to apply new rules and handles conditional logic to proceed only with valid commits. It offers final confirmation of success or failure, keeping administrators informed and in control of security rule management in real-time. This automation is ideal for security teams seeking to streamline rule updates, reduce manual errors, and maintain a high-security posture.
