Use Cases and Deployment Scope
In our environment Rapid7 InsightConnect is used our virus protection solution. We utilize it to monitor our technical landscape and reduce the risk of any virus attacks and patch vulnerabilities. With its scanning and automation features we are able to rely on it to uphold security in our IT environment and continue to improve our security posture with the many new vulnerabilities surfacing daily.
Pros and Cons
  • It monitors malicious behavior in across our systems so that we can be proactive in catching any viruses.

  • It will install easily across the environment allowing for simple rollout and quick security.
Likelihood to Recommend
Where Rapid7 InsightConnect excels is in environments needing the whole suite of virus protection and monitoring. In our environment we use it to make sure we have visibility over all endpoints, servers, hosts, and clusters to make sure that there are no vulnerabilities being left unattended too. It is also best in large environments. Since there are many endpoints, the automation from Rapid7 helps manage them all in an efficient manner.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Rapid7 Insight Connect is a very powerful and scalable vulnerability assessment tool that allows us to perform a thorough network scan. Deep scanning of our network, including the cloud and virtualized infrastructure, allows us to identify threats at all points and in all three of these environments. The most important aspect of this system is that it eliminates all of our weaknesses.
Pros and Cons
  • The most significant difference is that we no longer have to examine endpoints and devices separately.
  • The cost.
  • The impact on the safety and efficiency of our business.
Likelihood to Recommend
The general aspects survive the errors that you can find in daily driving.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Rapid7 InsightConnect to automate various aspects of security in our IT department. We don't have the staff to constantly monitor everything 24/7. This has given us the ability to identify and remedy various malware attacks, along with automating the process after hours. Phishing emails have been reduced to a minimum as well.
Pros and Cons
  • Reduce phishing emails
  • Locate devices infected with malware and isolate them.
  • No need to learn a proprietary coding language to configure.
Likelihood to Recommend
This is perfect for an IT department with minimal staff. Security is usually an afterthought in small IT departments. If you have a dedicated security team, then something like this could be replaced with something more complex. The features it comes with are aimed toward a team that doesn't monitor and change things all the time. It's more of a set it and let it handle the rest type.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use it for security event alerting so that we have all the information from what is happening in the network and are more quickly able to make decisions and how to stop and resolve any security concerns. It also connects with our ticketing system to provide all the metrics in one security event for tracking.
Pros and Cons
  • Integration
  • Quick decision making.
  • Better metrics.
Likelihood to Recommend
It was easy to set up and integrate with our existing systems which include ticketing. Management of it within the insight suite is very easy and once it is running not much configuration is needed. If you are already running rapid 7 or considering running it I would recommend including the insight connect.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We used rapid7 insight connect to connect our vuln management platform, insight M, to our Jira and Slack for ticket/project creation and notifications. I found both of the integrations as pre-built modules that I could customize for our environment so was able to get them up and working quickly and effectively. This enabled me to replicate and improve ticketing and alerting workflows that I had previously built in Tenable's Security Center platform by allowing for interaction with the vuln management tool from Slack. Now our devs and sysadmins could pull up device or application vuln info from Slack and would be notified via slack of changes to any devices or apps they owned, assuming they were being scanned by the vuln management tool.
Pros and Cons
  • Offers pre-built integrations with multiple common alerting tools
  • Offers pre-built workflows for multiple common tools
  • Easy to create custom workflows and integrations
Likelihood to Recommend
It is well suited to accelerating the dev/sec/ops cycle because it integrates with all the tools we used there including Jenkins, Jira, and Slack, so that when a build kicked off from a project in Jira we could have the build scanned as it went through Jenkins either via a slack or Jira task. The scan would produce a report that we would customize and drop into Jira and any findings could also be sent to Slack. Infosec would also be notified and we worked with the dev team to make a policy that any highs or criticals would need to be remediated prior to advancing the code to prod. Where it could be better is putting an automated gate on the Jenkins build, which it may be able to do but we didn't figure out before our time with the product ended.
