Introduction
Within today’s quickly transforming threat context, security operations centers (SOCs) need robust tools to detect, analyze, and respond to threats efficiently. ReversingLabs’ integration with Microsoft Sentinel, a cloud-native Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) solution, empowers SOCs with advanced threat intelligence and file enrichment capabilities. This blog post explores how these integrations enhance security operations and streamline incident response.

ReversingLabs and Microsoft Sentinel: A Powerful Partnership
ReversingLabs is an active member of the Microsoft Intelligent Security Association (MISA), which ensures that Microsoft Engineers have thoroughly reviewed our integrations to ensure the proper integration of services.
ReversingLabs collaborates with Microsoft Sentinel to provide SOCs with comprehensive threat intelligence and file reputation services. This integration reduces SOC triage time and analyst fatigue by delivering actionable insights and automating key processes.
ReversingLabs offers four products in the Azure Marketplace.
- Reversinglabs Content Pack for Microsoft Sentinel offers a comprehensive suite of tools to enhance threat intelligence and incident response. This solution includes sample playbooks that automatically enrich incidents with file hash reputation information from ReversingLabs’ Spectra Intelligence and Spectra Analyze platforms. Additionally, it features a workbook that provides valuable insights into threat intelligence feed quality, incident metrics, and the efficiency of security operations.
- ReversingLabs Scanner for Microsoft Defender significantly enhances the capabilities of Security Operations Center (SOC) analysts by integrating file-based threat intelligence directly into the Microsoft Defender incident interface. This solution leverages the Microsoft Defender Streaming API to provide comprehensive insights into file characteristics, including malware classification, threat names, and MITRE ATT&CK tactics. By accessing ReversingLabs’ extensive database of over 40 billion searchable samples and 385 billion file hashes, analysts can quickly identify and respond to potential security threats, improving incident response times and overall security posture.
- ReversingLabs Enrichment APIs For Sentinel empower security teams to enhance their malware detection capabilities by directly integrating advanced file reputation and hash analysis into their Sentinel workflows. This offer provides access to ReversingLabs’ Spectra Intelligence File Reputation and File Hash Analysis APIs, enabling SOC teams to quickly classify files as good, bad, or suspicious and gain detailed insights from static and dynamic analysis. By leveraging these APIs, organizations can significantly reduce incident triage and response times, ensuring a more efficient and effective security posture.
- ReversingLabs - Early Detection of Ransomware for Sentinel provides a powerful solution for detecting ransomware threats within your network. This feed integrates seamlessly with the Sentinel TAXII data connector, injecting curated indicators to hunt ransomware into your Threat Intelligence blade. These indicators are harvested from confirmed malware, vetted for accuracy, and enhanced with additional intelligence, ensuring they are active and relevant. By leveraging this feed, organizations can proactively identify and mitigate ransomware threats at various stages of the attack lifecycle, significantly enhancing their security posture.

Practical Applications
Investigating Security Incidents
By leveraging ReversingLabs’ threat intelligence within Microsoft Sentinel, SOC analysts can investigate security incidents more effectively. The integration provides deeper visibility and advanced context for Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) so analysts can understand the nature and scope of threats.
The ReversingLabs file reputation API can automatically triage alerts created by end-point protection solutions such as Microsoft Defender. Additionally, Reversinglabs can automatically examine associated files and enrich the incident report in a consistent format, saving hundreds of hours of manual investigation.
Automating Incident Response
ReversingLabs’ Content Pack for Microsoft Sentinel includes a sample playbook for automating incident enrichment with file hash reputation information. This automation accelerates incident response and improves SOC performance by reducing manual analysis efforts.
Once a file is convicted as goodware, malware, or suspicious, the playbook can automatically trigger a constant series of events to handle the incident. Goodware can be released from email quarantine. An end-point infected with malware can be isolated from the network using an intelligent switch, scheduled for reimaging, and the affected parties will be notified. A suspicious file may be tagged for further investigation, such as being sent to a ReversingLabs SandBox. Such automation will save hundreds of hours of operator time and provide a better, more consistent incident response.
