Amazon CLB
Classic Load Balancers (Amazon CLB) Elastic Load Balancing automatically distributes the incoming traffic across multiple targets, such as EC2 instances, containers, and IP addresses, in one or more Availability Zones. It monitors the health of its registered targets and routes traffic only to the healthy targets. Users can select the type of load balancer that best suits their needs. A Classic Load Balancer makes routing decisions at either the transport layer (TCP/SSL) or the application layer (HTTP/HTTPS). Classic Load Balancers currently require a fixed relationship between the load balancer port and the container instance port.
Amazon configuration
Select an existing S3 Bucket or create a new one.
Go to Services > Compute > EC2:
Go to Load Balancing > Load Balancers on the left menu. Create a new load balancer or select one or more load balancers and select Edit attributes on the Actions menu:
In this tab we will define our S3 and the path where the logs will be stored:

Policy configuration
To create a policy using the Amazon Web Services console, follow the AWS documentation.
Take into account that the policies below follow the principle of least privilege to ensure that only the minimum permissions are provided to the Wazuh user.
To allow an AWS user to use the module with read-only permissions, it must have a policy like the following attached:
{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Sid": "VisualEditor0",
"Effect": "Allow",
"Action": [
"s3:GetObject",
"s3:ListBucket"
],
"Resource": [
"arn:aws:s3:::<BUCKET_NAME>/*",
"arn:aws:s3:::<BUCKET_NAME>"
]
}
]
}
If it is necessary to delete the log files once they have been collected, the associated policy would be as follows:
{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Sid": "VisualEditor0",
"Effect": "Allow",
"Action": [
"s3:GetObject",
"s3:ListBucket",
"s3:DeleteObject"
],
"Resource": [
"arn:aws:s3:::<BUCKET_NAME>/*",
"arn:aws:s3:::<BUCKET_NAME>"
]
}
]
}
Note
<BUCKET_NAME>
is a placeholder. Replace it with the actual name of the bucket from which you want to retrieve logs.
Once a policy has been created, there are different methods available to attach it to a user, such as attaching it directly or to a group to which the user belongs. More information on how to perform those tasks on the AWS documentation.
Wazuh configuration
Open the Wazuh configuration file (
/var/ossec/etc/ossec.conf
) and add the following block for CLB:<wodle name="aws-s3"> <disabled>no</disabled> <interval>10m</interval> <run_on_start>yes</run_on_start> <skip_on_error>yes</skip_on_error> <bucket type="clb"> <name>wazuh-aws-wodle</name> <path>CLB</path> <aws_profile>default</aws_profile> </bucket> </wodle>
Note
Check the AWS S3 module reference manual to learn more about each setting.
Restart Wazuh in order to apply the changes:
If you're configuring a Wazuh manager:
# systemctl restart wazuh-manager
# service wazuh-manager restart
If you're configuring a Wazuh agent:
# systemctl restart wazuh-agent
# service wazuh-agent restart
