Introducing Halo Security’s New Slack Integration for Real-Time Alerts

Nick Hemenway -

At Halo Security, we’re always looking for ways to make protecting your organization simpler and more effective. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce our new Slack® app designed to help streamline your cybersecurity workflows.

With this integration, you can now receive real-time alerts about newly discovered assets, vulnerabilities, and essential security updates directly in Slack. Let’s dive into what this means for you and how you can take advantage of it today.

A Seamless Upgrade to Your Workflow

Previously, Halo Security customers had the option to set up Slack alerts via Zapier. While effective, it required extra steps and services. Now, with our direct integration, you’ll experience a more streamlined setup and enhanced control over the alerts you receive.

You can now configure instant alerts when:

  • New vulnerabilities are detected
  • Unknown assets or open ports are discovered
  • New technologies appear on your websites

All of this happens without adding complexity to your workflow. The integration keeps your security and IT teams aligned and helps you respond to emerging threats faster, with fewer distractions.

How it Helps

Real-time security alerts are crucial in staying ahead of attackers—but we know the pain of too many notifications. That’s why this integration lets you customize your alerts, ensuring you’re only notified about the issues that matter most.

Here’s what sets Halo Security’s Slack integration apart:

  • Precise Control: Configure alerts to match your team’s priorities.
  • Faster Responses: Act on critical issues as soon as they’re detected.
  • Enhanced Collaboration: Keep security and IT teams on the same page within the tools they already use.

Getting Started

Getting started is simple:

  1. Log in to your Halo Security account.
  2. Navigate to the Events → Integrations page and follow the instructions to activate the Slack app.
  3. Customize your notification settings to fit your needs.

The new Slack integration is just one more way Halo Security is helping customers like you stay ahead of cyber threats. We’re excited to see how this feature enhances your workflows and protects your organization.
