  3. Read the latest clear findingUse the latest vetted finding to identify its verdict and checked time. Flag conflicting or incomplete findings for investigator review.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions about the Look Up File Hashes:

Does this run a new VirusTotal hash lookup?

No. You choose a findings channel with vetted VirusTotal results. The Agent searches those prior messages and asks for a fresh check when it finds no match.

Which hashes can investigators submit?

Your investigators can post one MD5, SHA1, or SHA256 hash in a new channel message. If they post none or several, they get a request for one valid hash.

What happens if prior findings disagree?

Your investigator gets links to the matching findings and takes the review from there. The Agent leaves the verdict open when findings conflict or lack key details.

What do I need to set up for file hash search?

You choose an investigation channel and a separate channel with vetted findings. You also grant access to search those findings and reply to requests.

What happens when the Agent is unsure?

It stops and asks you. The Agent does not guess when it reaches a decision you have not approved.

Can I review its work?

Yes. Every run creates a plain-language log that you can review and export. Logs are kept for twelve months.

What happens if I cancel?

The Agent stops at the end of the billing month and its tool connections are removed. Your run logs remain available for twelve months.
