Elastic

We are currently working on integrating the Elastic Stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana)!

In addition, we've added the following:

Curator
DomainStats
ElastAlert
FreqServer

Each component has its own Docker image.

You can get an idea of what this whole integration might look like at a high-level by viewing our proposed architecture diagram.

Hardware Requirements

Please note the following MINIMUM requirements for the Elastic stack:

• 2 CPU cores
• 8GB RAM

Installation

The easiest way to try the new Elastic integration is using our 14.04.5.11 (or newer) ISO image: https://blog.securityonion.net/2018/04/security-onion-elastic-stack-general.html

Alternatively, if you have an existing TEST installation or if you want to install using an ISO image other than our 14.04.5.11 (or newer), you can install the securityonion-elastic package and then run so-elastic-download as follows:

sudo soup
sudo apt install securityonion-elastic
sudo so-elastic-download

If you've already run Setup, you can then convert the box from ELSA to Elastic using so-elastic-configure:

sudo so-elastic-configure

If this is a fresh installation where you haven't run Setup yet, then you can instead run sosetup:

sudo sosetup

If you would like to install on your own preferred flavor of Ubuntu 14.04, you can follow steps 1-11 here:

Then run:

sudo apt install securityonion-elastic 
sudo so-elastic-download 
sudo sosetup
