# Halo Security Integration

Halo Security is a comprehensive security platform designed to safeguard digital assets and infrastructure against various threats and vulnerabilities.

### How does this integration help Sprinto <a href="#how-does-this-integration-help-sprinto" id="how-does-this-integration-help-sprinto"></a>

This integration assists Sprinto in retrieving detected vulnerabilities from your Halo Security account. According to data security compliance standards, all identified vulnerabilities must be resolved within the defined Service Level Agreement (SLA). Once a vulnerability is resolved and its status updated in Halo Security, Sprinto detects the changes and updates the Sprinto check status to 'passing' for the resolved vulnerability.

#### Sprinto checks for Halo Security <a href="#sprinto-checks-for-halo-security" id="sprinto-checks-for-halo-security"></a>

Following are the Sprinto checks available for Halo Security:

<table><thead><tr><th width="232.77734375">Sprinto check</th><th>Required action</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Halo Security vulnerability alert should be resolved within SLA</strong></td><td>There is a current vulnerability in the “Open” status detected on your integrated Halo Security account. Resolve the vulnerability from the source and close the vulnerability from your Halo Security account.</td></tr></tbody></table>

### Before you begin <a href="#before-you-begin" id="before-you-begin"></a>

### Final step <a href="#final-step" id="final-step"></a>

After completing Step 2, allow 15 to 20 minutes for Sprinto to finish the data syncing process. Sprinto may take a few hours to evaluate the synced data and activate relevant Sprinto checks. If needed, go to Data Library > Vulnerabilities and click Halo Security to review the pending Sprinto checks.
