Enable ReversingLabs
ReversingLabs file reputation is configured at runtime from the Halo Portal or the Halo API. This is the supported path on the OVA and other self-hosted appliances, where the appliance owns cdrplatform-secrets and the Engine writes the settings directly. A change is appliance-wide and takes effect without a restart.
Configure from the Portal
- Sign in to the Portal as an administrator.
- Open Settings and select the File reputation tab.
- Enter the ReversingLabs username and password, and optionally a timeout in seconds (1–120, default 5). Halo hard-codes the endpoint (the same for every appliance); the tab shows it read-only with a padlock icon.
- Select Test connection to verify the endpoint and credentials.
- Turn ReversingLabs on and Save. Enabling requires a passing test.
Configure from the Halo API
The same operations are available on the Halo API (administrator; basic or bearer auth):
GET /api/v1/reversing-labs/settings— read the current settings. The password is never returned.PUT /api/v1/reversing-labs/settings— save the settings. Enabling is gated on a passing connection test; leave the password blank to keep the stored one.POST /api/v1/reversing-labs/test-connection— test a candidate endpoint and credentials without saving.
