Rapid7 InsightConnect has proven to be a valuable tool for users across various industries and environments. With its pre-built integrations and customization options, users have been able to seamlessly connect their vulnerability management platform, Insight M, with other tools like Jira and Slack. This integration has allowed for efficient ticket and project creation as well as notifications, enhancing workflow productivity. By integrating with Slack, users can access vulnerability information and receive notifications directly from the platform, replicating and enhancing ticketing and alerting workflows.
One key use case of Rapid7 InsightConnect is its ability to detect and respond to suspicious or abnormal behavior, enabling users to take quick action. It serves as an effective virus protection solution, monitoring the technical landscape to reduce the risk of virus attacks and patch vulnerabilities. The scanning and automation features have helped users maintain security in their IT environment by addressing malware attacks even outside of regular working hours. Additionally, the software automates various aspects of security, providing relief for IT departments with limited staff by reducing phishing emails.
Another important use case is that Rapid7 InsightConnect facilitates thorough network scans across various environments, including cloud and virtualized infrastructure. Users have found it to be a powerful and scalable vulnerability assessment tool that integrates seamlessly with different solutions such as Jira, EDR solutions, open-source intelligence platforms, firewalls, and intrusion detection systems. Although customization may require coding knowledge, users have appreciated the convenience of pre-built integrations provided by Rapid7 InsightConnect.
The integration with ticketing systems also allows for streamlined tracking and reporting of security events, which is crucial for effective incident response and compliance reporting. Overall, Rapid7 InsightConnect has proven to be a versatile tool that addresses key security concerns in organizations while increasing efficiency and automation in vulnerability management processes.

Safe scanning with some solvable buts
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.
- 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.
- It has been some years since the user community has been resurrected.
- The console presently lacks a failover option, therefore a failure necessitates the creation of a new instance.
- Many scheduled maintenance tasks that were helpful to know about have been removed.
- Easy learning
- Secure portfolio tools
- Internal/operational efficiencies should be created.
- Scans for newer vulnerabilities require additional support due to the increased risk posed by long dwell times.
- Violations stopped at 4% per month and growing.
- Compatibility with networks that may improve in the future.
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.
- Offers pre-built integrations with multiple common alerting tools
- Offers pre-built workflows for multiple common tools
- Easy to create custom workflows and integrations
- Sometimes too point and clicky
- Cost is high
- Workflows often require users from several teams to work on various tools
- Integration
- Automation
- Ease of use
- The automation and integration we set up in the dev cycle helped us provide evidence in audits
- The automation and integration we set up in the dev cycle helped us fix vulns in our software prior to implementation thus increasing our security
- Automations save massive time and headache's between infosec and devs
- Snyk, Splunk SOAR (Security Orchestration, Automation and Response) (formerly Phantom), Sensu, by Sumo Logic and SonarQube
Our needs and use of Rapid7 IC was strickly SOAR so products like Snyk would be something to integrate and build automation with, the same with Sonar Cube but we never got the chance to do so. Splunk SOAR is something we are using now at a more global level, so a Jira ticket will kick off a vuln scan as well as a code scan, one example. We evaluated Sensu but since our SIEM is Splunk it made more sense to go that way. It was our observation that other products that are dedicated SOAR have more integrations and more powerful workflows that can span your entire enterprise. That is not to say that IC can't span your enterprise but as you can imagine it is very Rapid7 centric, so if you have Rapid7 VM, IDR, and AppSec this could be a VERY powerful SOAR. On the other hand, if you don't have a large Rapid7 footprint your SOAR implementation with IC may be very limited.
