Real-Time Intrusion Detection for Small Businesses (Cenegi + Wazuh)

We’ve finished building our Cenegi IDS using Wazuh + a lightweight network sensor to give small businesses real-time visibility into risky activity—without enterprise pricing or complexity. A short demo video is linked at the end.

High-level architecture

Simple flow of telemetry from your site to Cenegi’s Wazuh cloud for monitoring.

What this actually catches

  • Suspicious or impossible logins (wrong geo/device, brute-force attempts)

  • Hidden inbox forwarding rules and risky mail activity

  • Malware beacons / command-and-control traffic

  • New/unauthorized admin accounts or privilege changes

  • DNS anomalies and other network indicators of compromise

We start with a strong baseline ruleset, then tune detections to your environment to cut noise and surface what matters.

How it works (4 steps)

  1. Place a Cenegi Sensor at your site (law firm, manufacturing shop, office).

  2. Install lightweight agents (including Wazuh) on key systems to send security events.

  3. Securely stream endpoint + network data through an encrypted tunnel to Cenegi’s Wazuh server for ongoing monitoring.

  4. Act fast: We review alerts daily, notify you of active threats, and deliver a clear fix plan with recommendations.

What you’ll see in the dashboard


Plain-English alerts, trends, and MITRE-mapped detections.

Why clients like this approach

  • Clarity: Plain-English alerts and weekly summaries—no jargon.

  • Coverage: Endpoint + network + email behaviors in one view.

  • Right-sized: Enterprise-grade visibility, small-business budget.

  • Month-to-month: Prove value first, then scale.
