TheHive has no official, structured tool listing we can auto-sync (unlike Kali, BlackArch, REMnux, and Tails). The tools below are maintained by hand and may be incomplete or outdated — check the official docs for the current tool set.
TheHive is a scalable case-management platform for security incident
response — organizing alerts, cases, tasks, and observables for an
IR team, paired with Cortex for running enrichment/analysis jobs
against those observables. It’s a defensive/blue-team platform,
included here for its official downloadable demo VM rather than any
offensive tooling.
Use it only in environments you own or are explicitly authorized to
operate in — see the disclaimer.
Getting started
TheHive's maintainer, StrangeBee, publishes a ready-to-import OVA
(currently Debian-based) bundling TheHive, Cortex, and Elasticsearch
for a quick demo — explicitly for evaluation, not production, per its
own documentation. It boots straight to a working instance with no
setup. For real deployments, the official docs instead cover
Docker-based and package-based installs of TheHive and its Cortex
analyzer engine separately.
Before you continue
SecArsenal is an independent, educational reference. It does not host, distribute, or provide exploit code — only descriptions of, and links to, publicly available third-party tools and operating systems.
By continuing, you acknowledge that you will only use the tools and techniques referenced on this site against systems, networks, or accounts you own or are explicitly authorized to test; that unauthorized access to computer systems may be illegal in your jurisdiction; and that all information is provided "as is," and that SecArsenal and its contributors assume no liability for how it is used.

These toggles are a first-party enhancement layered on top of markup we build to follow WCAG 2.2 Level AA guidance — they are not a substitute for accessible design, and we have not undergone a formal third-party compliance audit, so we don't claim full conformance. If you hit a real accessibility barrier anywhere on this site, please open an issue — we'd rather hear about it than have this panel stand in for fixing it.
