Osquery exposes an operating systemВ as a high-performance relational database. By collecting the events it generates usingВ Windows Event CollectionВ orВ SIEMВ agents and subsequently analyzing them, you can identify malicious or anomalous activity and understand how intruders and malware operate on your network. It provides detailed information about process creations, network connections, and changes to file creation time. System MonitorВ (Sysmon)В is a Windows system service and device driver that, once installed on a system, remains resident across system reboots to monitor and log system activity to the Windows event log. Elastic Stack is a complete end-to-end log analysis solution which helps in deepВ searching,В analyzingВ andВ visualizingВ the log generated from different machines. Despite each one of these three technologies being a separate project, they have been built to work exceptionally well together. The ELK stack is an amazing and powerful collection of three open source projects вЂ“ Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana.

In addition to setting up the Elastic stack I will provide instructions to install Sysmon + Winlogbeat on Windows and Osquery + Filebeat on Ubuntu to ship logs to Elastic.

This blog post will cover how to setup the Elastic stack formerly known as ELK. Each blog post in the series will provide Docker-compose v2, Docker-compose for Swarm, Ansible, Vagrant, and manual instructions to allow the reader to setup each platform with the deployment method of their choosing. The ultimate goal of each blog post is to empower the reader to choose their own adventure by selecting the best SIEM based on their goals or requirements. This blog post is the first in a series to demonstrate how to install and setup common SIEM platforms.
