Service Config View - Proxy Tab

This topic introduces the parameters configured in the Proxy tab in the Service Config view for a Malware Analysis service. This tab configures Malware Analysis communication via web proxy with the NetWitness Cloud for community analysis and with the sandbox service for sandbox analysis to preserve anonymity. If you are using a local sandbox service, communications via web proxy are unnecessary and may slow performance. When configuring the sandbox module in the General tab, you can choose to bypass the configured web proxy.
