Di era digital saat ini, keamanan informasi sangatlah penting, terutama ketika mengelola sistem atau server, aplikasi berbasis situs dan sebagainya. Salah umum satu ancaman keamanan yang paling yaitu serangan Brute Force. Negara Indonesia menduduki peringkat kedua teratas dari serangan Brute Force di Asia Tenggara setelah negara Vietnam yang menduduki peringkat pertama. Pada periode Januari hingga Desember 2023, total ada 61.374.948 Bruteforce.Generic.RDP. terdeteksi dan digagalkan oleh produk Kaspersky B2B. Serangan Brute Force yang berhasil memungkinkan penyerang mendapatkan kredensial pengguna yang valid. Ubuntu adalah distribusi Linux open-source gratis berbasis Debian yang pertama kali diterbitkan pada tahun 2004. Ubuntu dirilis dalam tiga edisi (Desktop, Server, dan Core) yang semuanya dapat berjalan di komputer mandiri atau di mesin virtual. Berdasarkan permasalahan tersebut, diperlukan sebuah tools yang dapat memadukan perkembangan yang terjadi dalam sebuah server. Salah satu tools yang digunakan untuk monitoring adalah Wazuh. Wazuh merupakan perangkat berbasis Open Source yang berfungsi sebagai sistem deteksi intrusi berbasis host (endpoint). Metode yang digunakan untuk menyelesaikan masalah tersebut menggunakan metode Penetration Testing. Ada beberapa tahapan yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini yaitu, Pengumpulan Informasi, Pemodelan Ancaman, Analisis Kerentanan, Eksploitasi, dan Pelaporan. Hasil dari pengujian yang telah dilakukan menunjukkan bahwa Wazuh dapat mendeteksi serangan Brute Force Hydra pada kerentanan rendah. Sedangkan serangan Denial of Service berhasil dilakukan pada koneksi 1000, 1500, 2000, tetapi serangan tersebut tidak dapat terdeteksi oleh Wazuh.

Salah satu bentuk dari pemanfaatan kemajuan teknologi berupa penerapan aplikasi web menggunakan web server untuk berbagi informasi, memberikan layanan, dan menyimpan data. Dibalik kemudahan dalam penggunaan aplikasi web yang dapat diakses darimana pun, terdapat risiko ancaman keamanan siber yang cukup besar dimana aplikasi web dapat menjadi target serangan oleh penjahat siber yang ingin mencuri informasi sensitif atau mengambil alih sistem. Masalah keamanan tersebut dapat diatasi dengan pendekatan reaktif yaitu penerapan sistem keamanan yang mampu mendeteksi dan menganalisa insiden keamanan pada aplikasi web secara cepat dan efektif. Salah satu solusi yang dapat digunakan adalah dengan mengimplementasikan Security Information and Event Management (SIEM). SIEM adalah sistem yang dapat digunakan untuk mengelola log yang dihasilkan dari berbagai sumber data seperti endpoint, perangkat jaringan, maupun firewall, Salah satu aplikasi SIEM yang bersifat open source dan dapat digunakan untuk deteksi serta analisa insiden serangan siber adalah Wazuh. Wazuh adalah perangkat lunak open source yang berfungsi sebagai sistem deteksi berbasis host (endpoint) yang menyatukan kemampuan XDR (External Data Representation). Metode yang digunakan dalam penyelesaian masalah tersebut menggunakan metode Eksperimental, ada 5 tahapan dalam metode eksperimental ini yaitu analisis kebutuhan, desain, implementasi, pengujian, evaluasi. Hasil dari pengujian tersebut dapat di deteksi oleh Wazuh sebagai SIEM untuk memonitoring keamanan server dan deteksi penyerangan.
