One of the most popular feature requests for ossec<\/a> that I received lately was the availability of granular e-mail alerting options.

Here are some examples of what you can do:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to e-mail xx@y.z for every event in the group syslog you can add the following to ossec:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  <email_alerts>\n   <email_to>xx@y.z<\/email_to>\n   <group>syslog<\/group>\n <\/email_alerts><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
To e-mail (sms format) aa@y.z for every event with severity higher than 10 (Note that the SMS format is not grouped, so the e-mail is sent immediately):<\/p>\n\n\n\n
  <email_alerts>\n   <email_to>aa@y.z<\/email_to>\n   <level>10<\/level>\n   <format>sms<\/format>\n <\/email_alerts><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
To e-mail bb@y.z for every event from rule 123 or rule 124:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
 <email_alerts>\n   <email_to>bb@y.z<\/email_to>\n   <rule_id>123, 124<\/rule_id>\n <\/email_alerts><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
To e-mail cc@y.z for every event with severity higher than 12, from agent qwert, without any delay (immediately):<\/p>\n\n\n\n
 <email_alerts>\n   <email_to>cc@y.z<\/email_to>\n   <level>12<\/level>\n   <event_location>qwerty<\/event_location>\n   <do_not_delay \/>\n <\/email_alerts<<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
You just need to tweak it for you own needs. Send any questions to our mailing list or here in the comments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
