Wazuh Training: Master XDR Configuration and Security Monitoring

This Wazuh training course is your complete path to mastering the open-source XDR and SIEM platform trusted by organisations like NASA, eBay, and Walgreens. You’ll learn Wazuh XDR deployment, threat detection, SIEM configuration, and automated incident response through live instructor-led sessions and hands-on labs.

Wazuh protects over 15 million endpoints across 100,000+ organisations worldwide . The global XDR market is projected to grow from $1.3 billion in 2025 to nearly $6 billion by 2033 . That means demand for professionals who can deploy and manage XDR platforms is only going up.

So why Wazuh specifically? It’s free, open-source, and does what tools like Splunk and QRadar do, without the licensing costs. More SOC teams are adopting it every year. And there aren’t enough trained people to fill the roles.

This Wazuh training course covers the complete Wazuh architecture: the Wazuh server for analysis and management, the Wazuh indexer (built on OpenSearch) for storage and search, the Wazuh dashboard for visualization, and the Wazuh agent for endpoint monitoring. You’ll learn single-node and multi-node deployments.

Wazuh XDR supports compliance with PCI DSS, HIPAA, GDPR, NIST 800-53, and CIS benchmarks out of the box. This Wazuh training course teaches you how to configure compliance monitoring, generate audit reports, and maintain continuous security posture assessment.

After completing this Wazuh training, you’ll be ready to deploy and manage Wazuh XDR in enterprise environments. You can pursue roles as SOC Analyst, Security Engineer, SIEM Administrator, or Security Operations Manager. Our training prepares you for real-world security operations.

Is This Course Right For You?

Before enrolling, make sure this course aligns with your career goals and experience level.

Perfect For You If:

you meet these criteria

  • You want to master Wazuh XDR and build a career in security operations
  • You're a SOC analyst, security engineer, or IT admin responsible for SIEM and XDR in your organisation
  • You want to learn Wazuh XDR configuration for threat detection, log analysis, and incident response
  • You prefer live Wazuh training with expert instructors over watching pre-recorded videos on your own
  • You need to set up security monitoring for on-premises, cloud, and containerised environments
  • You want to build compliance-ready security infrastructure using open-source tools without expensive licensing

Not Recommended If:

Consider other courses first

  • You have zero Linux experience (start with our Linux fundamentals course first)
  • You need training on proprietary SIEM tools like Splunk, QRadar, or Microsoft Sentinel
  • You're only looking for basic cybersecurity awareness training

What You'll Be Able To Do

Real career outcomes our students achieve after completing this course

  • Deploy and Configure Wazuh XDR From Scratch Install and configure every Wazuh component: the server, the OpenSearch-based indexer, the dashboard, and agents. You'll learn single-node setups for small environments and multi-node cluster deployments for enterprise networks. By the end of this module, you'll have a fully working Wazuh XDR platform.
  • Build Custom Threat Detection Rules Configure log collection from endpoints, network devices, and cloud workloads. Create custom decoders and detection rules. Map alerts to the MITRE ATT&CK framework. This is where your Wazuh training turns you from someone who reads dashboards into someone who builds them.
  • Monitor File Integrity Across All Endpoints Set up File Integrity Monitoring (FIM) to detect unauthorised file changes, malware, rootkits, and suspicious modifications across Windows, Linux, and macOS systems. Most security breaches involve file system changes. You'll catch them.
  • Run Vulnerability Scans and Compliance Audits Configure vulnerability detection, connect to CVE databases, and prioritise remediation by risk score. Set up compliance monitoring for PCI DSS, HIPAA, GDPR, NIST 800-53, and CIS benchmarks. All built into Wazuh, no extra tools needed.
  • Automate Incident Response Configure active response rules that block malicious IPs, disable compromised accounts, and run custom remediation scripts automatically. Build incident response workflows that reduce your mean time to respond (MTTR) from hours to seconds.
  • Secure Cloud and Container Environments Extend Wazuh XDR to AWS, Azure, and GCP workloads. Configure Docker and Kubernetes security monitoring. Most organisations run hybrid infrastructure now, and your Wazuh training needs to cover all of it. Ours does.
