To access TheHive, point your browser to the following URL:
To access Cortex, point your browser to the following URL:
The first time you access TheHive, you’ll need to create the associated database by clicking on the Update Database
button as shown below:
TheHive’s configuration file is located in /etc/thehive/application.conf
. For additional configuration, read the documentation.
Note : after the first login into TheHive, if the Cortex health check fails (look at the Cortex icon at the bottom right side of the UI), it should success after fully reloading the web page.
Cortex is already configured with a superAdmin account admin/thehive1234
. An organization training
is also pre-installed with an account thehive/thehive1234
. This account has read/analyze/orgAdmin
privileges and TheHive is already configured to use the Cortex service with its key API.
With the new version, analyzers are disabled by default. The training VM is delivered with Abuse Finder, File_Info, Msg_Parser and MaxMind GeoIP enabled.
To fully benefit from the latest analyzers, update them and install the associated report templates in TheHive:
- download the report template package
- log in TheHive using an administrator account
- go to Admin > Report templates menu
- click on Import templates button and select the downloaded package
The test VM does not contain a MISP instance and none is configured in TheHive’s configuration file. To play with MISP, you may want to use the VM our good friends at CIRCL provide. Once you’ve downloaded it or if you have an existing instance, edit /etc/thehive/application.conf
and follow the configuration guide.
After each modification of /etc/thehive/application.conf
do not forget to restart the service:
$ sudo service thehive restart
After each modification of /etc/cortex/application.conf
do not forget to restart the service:
$ sudo service cortex restart
TheHive service logs are located in /var/log/thehive/application.log
.
Cortex service logs are located in /var/log/cortex/application.log
.
