CloudAware can monitor the specific criteria in your logs or IDS events, create incidents in CMDB and notify you via email. Use watcher functionality to create actions based on conditions which are periodically evaluated using queries on your data in Wazuh.
Use case: you need to get alerts based on log entries from the windows event log in Wazuh, e.g. of creation of new AWS EC2 Security Groups.
