MoSec: MSU Open-Source Cyber Security Management Solution

Abstract

The MSU Open Source Cyber Security Management Solution or MOSeC project, addresses the challenges organizations face in acquiring affordable and adaptable cyber security management solutions. Focused on creating an open-source system incorporating Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) components, particularly the Wazuh SIEM tool, the project aims to enhance real-time visibility and incident response capabilities. The methodology involves retrieving Wazuh logs based on incidents, showcasing them on a database website, and employing Flask for data flow organization. The MOSeC system prioritizes user-friendly interfaces, automation in incident response, and aligns with trends in digital forensics. Evaluation results demonstrate the efficiency of the system's user interface, database, and application integration, offering a promising and accessible cyber security management tool. Continuous vigilance and improvement efforts are recommended for sustained effectiveness. Overall, the MOSeC project stands as a promising open-source solution, providing organizations with a reliable, cost-effective, and customized cyber security management tool.
