OpenWEC

OpenWEC is a free and open source (GPLv3) implementation of a Windows Event Collector server running on GNU/Linux and written in Rust.

OpenWEC collects Windows event logs from a Linux machine without the need for a third-party local agent running on Windows machines.

OpenWEC implements the Windows Event Forwarding protocol (MS-WSMV), which is derived from WS-Management (DSP0226). The same protocol is used by the built-in Windows Event Forwarding plugin. As it speaks the same protocol, OpenWEC can be used with the built-in Windows Event Forwarding plugin. Only the source-initiated mode (Push) is supported for now.

OpenWEC is composed of two binaries:

  • openwecd: OpenWEC server
  • openwec: OpenWEC CLI, used to manage the OpenWEC server

The OpenWEC configuration is read from a file (by default /etc/openwec.conf.toml). See available parameters in openwec.conf.sample.toml. Subscriptions and their parameters are stored in a database and can be managed using openwec (see CLI documentation).
