Automate Security Alerting with NixGuard & Wazuh (Dispatcher)
detail.loadingPreview
This n8n workflow acts as a smart dispatcher, triggering your core NixGuard RAG and Wazuh integration to get real-time security insights. It formats the AI-powered analysis and provides a foundation for immediate action, like sending high-risk alerts to Slack.
About This Workflow
This powerful n8n workflow is designed as a Dispatcher for your critical security operations. Its primary role is to provide inputs—such as a NixGuard API key and a target IP for analysis—to a more complex, dedicated workflow: "Get Real-Time Security Insights with NixGuard RAG and Wazuh Integration." This pattern ensures maximum reusability and modularity for your security logic. After the analysis is complete, this workflow formats the intelligent AI summary from NixGuard and the insights from Wazuh, preparing them for the next steps. It's the perfect starting point for automating your Security Operations Center (SOC) and incident response processes, enabling quick alerts and setting the stage for advanced remediation.
Key Features
- Intelligent Dispatcher Pattern: Triggers a dedicated, complex workflow for NixGuard RAG and Wazuh integration, promoting modular and reusable security automation.
- Configurable Input: Easily set your NixGuard API key and specify the initial input (e.g., an IP address to scan) for analysis.
- AI-Powered Insights Formatting: Captures and formats the sophisticated AI-generated summaries from NixGuard, combined with Wazuh insights, for downstream actions.
- Optional Real-Time Slack Alerts: Comes with a pre-configured, optional Slack node to send immediate notifications for high-risk events directly to your security team.
- Foundation for Advanced SOC Automation: Serves as a launchpad for integrating further actions like Jira ticket creation, logging results, or triggering automated remediation.
