A recent solution has been developed to bridge Fail2Ban security monitoring with Microsoft Teams notifications, providing real-time alerts with detailed information about potential attackers.
The integration offers features like real-time notifications sent directly to Teams channels, geographical information about blocked IP addresses, easy configuration, customizable alerts for different services, and detailed threat analysis with IP geolocation data.
It consists of two main components: teams-geo.conf (Fail2Ban action configuration file) and teams-notify.sh (notification script that formats and sends alerts to Teams).
Users can set up this integration by following the provided installation steps, which include prerequisites, installation components, configuring Teams webhook, adding to jail configurations, and testing it out to monitor server security events effectively.
