🐝The Hive Installation

The Hive is A 4-IN-1 SECURITY INCIDENT RESPONSE PLATFORM

The Hive

After Installing the Wazuh we can start installation of the hive. The hive is free and opensource security incident response platform. In my case I will install the hive also in the same VM which we have installed the Wazuh.

There are few dependencies before we install the hive. Which are, Install Java

Install Cassandra

Install Elasticsearch

Here are more details about how to install each components before we install the hive.

Install Java

wget -qO- https://apt.corretto.aws/corretto.key | sudo gpg --dearmor  -o /usr/share/keyrings/corretto.gpg
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/corretto.gpg] https://apt.corretto.aws stable main" |  sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/corretto.sources.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install java-common java-11-amazon-corretto-jdk
echo JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-amazon-corretto" | sudo tee -a /etc/environment 
export JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-amazon-corretto"

Install Cassandra

wget -qO -  https://downloads.apache.org/cassandra/KEYS | sudo gpg --dearmor  -o /usr/share/keyrings/cassandra-archive.gpg
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/cassandra-archive.gpg] https://debian.cassandra.apache.org 40x main" |  sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cassandra.sources.list
