Elastic 6.3.2 now available for Security Onion!

The following are now available:
Docker images for Elastic 6.3.2, domainstats, freqserver, curator, and elastalert

securityonion-elastic - 20180130-1ubuntu1securityonion79 (14.04)

securityonion-elastic - 20180130-1ubuntu1securityonion119 (16.04)

This should resolve the following issues:

Issue 1294: Elastic 6.3.2
https://github.com/Security-Onion-Solutions/security-onion/issues/1294

For Security Onion 14.04, the updated securityonion-elastic package just changes the logstash config to match the new freq_server requirement. Therefore, you should not see any difference in dashboards or scripts.

For Security Onion 16.04, the updated securityonion-elastic package changes the logstash config and many other items. It should resolve the following issues:

Elastic Stack Beta Release and Security Onion 14.04.5.4 ISO Image!

UPDATED 2018/04/09! We've released a newer version!
https://blog.securityonion.net/2018/04/security-onion-elastic-stack-general.html

We're excited to announce that our Elastic stack integration has now reached Beta Release! This Beta release includes a new 14.04.5.4 ISO image that contains these Beta components and all the latest Ubuntu and Security Onion updates as of October 31, 2017!

Previous Releases
To see our progress over the last few months, please see the previous announcements:

Issues Resolved
Issue 1130: Elastic Stack Beta Release
https://github.com/Security-Onion-Solutions/security-onion/issues/1130

Issue 1094: 14.04.5.4 ISO image
https://github.com/Security-Onion-Solutions/security-onion/issues/1094

Known Issues
As seen in the screenshot above, metric visualizations have unnecessary scroll bars. This is a known issue in Kibana 5.6.3:
https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/13947

For this and other known issues, please see our RC1 list:
https://github.com/Security-Onion-Solutions/security-onion/issues/1132

Thanks
This new ISO image has been tested by Wes Lambert and Phil Plantamura. Thanks, guys!

New Installations
We've updated the Verify_ISO page for the new ISO image:
https://github.com/Security-Onion-Solutions/security-onion/blob/master/Verify_ISO.md

Please remember to verify the signature of the downloaded ISO image using the instructions on that page.

Please note! This ISO image includes the EXPERIMENTAL Elastic stack!

The Elastic components are included in the ISO image and Setup gives you an option of Stable Setup (ELSA) or Experimental Setup (Elastic). If you do not want to try the new Elastic stack, you can choose Stable Setup. If you choose Experimental Setup, the usual disclaimers and warnings apply!

Experimental Setup is BLEEDING EDGE and TOTALLY UNSUPPORTED!
If this breaks your system, you get to keep both pieces!
This is a work in progress and is in constant flux.
This is intended to build a quick prototype proof of concept so you can see what our ultimate Elastic configuration might look like. This configuration will change drastically over time leading up to the final release.
Do NOT run this on a system that you care about!
Do NOT run this on a system that has data that you care about!
This should only be run on a TEST box with TEST data!
Experimental Setup may result in nausea, vomiting, or a burning sensation.

For more about this Elastic Beta release, please see https://securityonion.net/wiki/elastic and the Screenshot tour at the bottom of this blog post.

Please note the following minimum hardware requirements for the Elastic stack:

2 CPU cores
8GB RAM

If you would prefer an ISO image with no Elastic components at all, you have a few options:

Install the older Security Onion 14.04.5.2 ISO image and then run "sudo soup"
OR
Install your preferred flavor of Ubuntu 14.04 and then add our PPA and your desired packages:
https://github.com/Security-Onion-Solutions/security-onion/wiki/InstallingOnUbuntu

Existing Deployments
If you have existing ELSA installations based on a previous 14.04 ISO image, there is no need to download this new ISO image. You can simply continue using our standard update process to install updated packages as they are made available:
https://github.com/Security-Onion-Solutions/security-onion/wiki/Upgrade

If you have existing Elastic installations (Technology Previews or Alpha), we don't officially support upgrading to newer releases. However, if you're running Alpha, you can try the steps listed here:
https://github.com/Security-Onion-Solutions/security-onion/wiki/Elastic-Alpha-to-Beta
If all else fails, you can perform a fresh installation using this Beta ISO image.
