# Feeds

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](https://app.halosecurity.com/user/settings/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

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**: For more complex integration needs, consider using the full Halo Security [API](/docs/integrations/api.md).
{% endhint %}

## 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
