Feeds

Share data from your Halo Security account with other security tools.

Feeds provide a simple way to share Halo Security data with third-party security tools and services. Each Feed creates a dedicated, read-only URL that exports specific data types from your account in a format that's easy to consume by other applications.

Use Cases

• Export asset lists to vulnerability scanners for comprehensive coverage

• Stream security events to SIEM platforms

• Share target information with network scanning tools

• Integrate asset data with configuration management systems

• Connect asset information with threat intelligence platforms

Data Types

Feeds can export the following types of data:

• Targets: Information about monitored assets in your account, including hostnames, IP addresses, and associated metadata.

• Assets: Comprehensive data about discovered assets across your attack surface, including both monitored and unmonitored assets.

• Events: Security events and alerts generated by Halo Security's monitoring systems.

Using Feeds

To get started with Feeds:

1. Navigate to Events → Feeds in your dashboard
2. Click the + icon to create a new Feed

3. Select the type of data you want to share

4. Configure any access restrictions

5. Use the generated URL to integrate with your tools

Note: For more complex integration needs, consider using the full Halo Security API.

Security

Feeds are designed with security in mind:

• Read-only access ensures data cannot be modified through the Feed

• Optional IP address restrictions limit access to specific systems

• Each Feed uses a unique URL that can be revoked if needed
