We as a financial services provider required to adhare with customer need which is security in current world and to protect those we have to secure our network and endpoint with every single possible attack scenario which are actively and passively try to invade and can cause problems. These infra includes cloud platform which includes AWS, Azure and Oracle and some in-house data centres so get a smooth coverage we used InsightIDR to bring everything under one umbrella.
  • Endpoint protection
  • SIEM
  • Integration with Various other sec tools
  • Asset Management
  • Segmentation
  • False positives are high
  • Dashboarding can be improved
Well, As a financial Services Provider we have dependency on various cloud platform such as AWS, Azure and Oracle which requires more attention to safeguard it. It cover holistically every single possible point which is good feature ofcourse but dashboarding can be improved and giving unnecessary false positives can be minimised as it creates chaos when we see reports and log.

Rapid7 InsightIDR helps in the early detection & response of threats, integration with other technologies for in-depth strategy & ultimately threat hunting. Early detection help organization detect attacker in the first stage of the kill chain. By in-depth use case helps to get intelligence of malware tactics protecting from the malware but also helps in to detect such malware in the future also.
  • Deceive Expose & Eliminate threats.
  • Attacker Visibility.
  • Integration with existing technologies like SIEM to 360 overviews of malware.
  • Granularity in reporting is missing.
Provide Contextual intelligence about the attackers with AI to enable an antimalware engine. AI enable Web-filtering solution. Automation of threat response & Broder investigates the report. Rapid7 Insight can be deployed rapidly in the network. Rapid7 Insight also helps to detect the lateral movement of malware. We can deploy Rapid7 Deception on any ware in the network rather than putting only on DMZ; I can put it in-line so that all traffic would scan.

Rapid7 InsightIDR is our cybersecurity software and we use it to handle Endpoint Detection and Response. My line of duty involves deploying AI bots under a cloud-based infrastructure that's prone to cyber attacks and viruses invasion to compromise the bots functionality. The security team engaged Rapid7 InsightIDR to help secure critical data being handled by the bots and systems, networks at large. I use it's system monitoring tools in my jurisdiction. It sends instant alerts in case of breaches to prevent major damages.
  • It provides network visibility with the sensor unlock over your environment.
  • Has a lightweight sensor for suspicious activity that's also noiseless.
  • The indicators of compromise are complex to analyze.
  • Running system scans consumes heavily the network bandwidth slowing processes.
Rapid7 InsightIDR handles malware like a pro. It's able to identify the steathly techniques used by attackers. There was a certain attack where the hacker masked as an employee of our company to escape the radar but we were able to sample out the activity with Rapid7 UEBA. It's also worth noting that Rapid7 InsightIDR has a complex architecture and while running system scans, operations may slow down as it takes up most of the network bandwidth.

We are using Rapid7 for incident detection and responses on our servers by reducing the attack's dwell time. We've also utilized it for IOCs TTP procedures to map the threat indicators metrics. We picked it because it's capable of trapping malicious behavior on the attack chain early enough before the vital assets are compromised.
  • Attacks are detected early enough on the peripheral assets to allow us more time to initiate responses with SOAR before compromising the critical assets.
  • Provides a good analysis of log and network data.
  • InsightIDR has limited SIEM capabilities, we are using another software for that.
InsightIDR has been very suitable for deception and extra. It maps attacks on our servers and networks in a very detailed manner, stating not only the log and network data but also important information like how the loops in which the attack was orchestrated and how the attackers got in. Also, during an attack, it weaves the intruder in InsightIDR's' honeypot' to give us plenty of time to initiate security response protocols.

We use Rapid7 as our SIEM solution. It provides us the network monitoring and detection capabilities without having to bring in an in-house SIEM technology and the FTE support required for such an implementation. Our network is spread across the US with over 60 offices spanning three time zones. We are an SMB with over 1,400 employees.
  • Timely Detection of Abnormal Behavior
  • Host Isolation
  • Collection of Network Devices Logs
  • Threat Intelligence Source
  • User Behavior and Analytics
  • Cost Effective
  • Staff Augmentation
  • Tamper Proofing Agent Against Bad Actors
  • Log Searching
  • Integration with Other Security Technologies
InsightIDR is well suited for SMBs that do not have the resources to bring in an on-prem SIEM. After the initial configuration is completed, which the Rapid7 team was very good at assisting us on, the upkeep of the SIEM in the cloud is mainly done by them. Then after the "tuning" is done and the noise of the benign network traffic is muted, then only the true alerts can be investigated for malicious intentions. It has been a great tool for us to identify malicious activity. The technology also allows us to isolate hosts on-the-fly.

With the help of cloud security, I am able to easily operate my functions and get in my best work in place. The data streams do not need to be worried about and a lot of the data can be accessed without thinking twice of who or what is behind or ahead.
  • Security
  • Rapid authentication
  • Highlights suspicious activities in turn helping us to be ahead of attackers
  • Free trials should be well documented
  • Prices can be reduced if possible
  • Add support for syncing a workplace
If you have any major impacting security device that needs replacement this is the one to go to. The entire setup is easy on cloud and in turn gives much more than just security. The authenticity and the data streaming is priceless. Applications are much more secure and not vulnerable

Rapid7 InsightIDR is our current product for EDR and antivirus. This product allows us to keep our environment secure from any and all vulnerabilities that could be harmful to the systems that run the business. We use it to secure our web applications as well as design plans for detection and response.
  • Rapid7 InsightIDR does a very good job at keeping virus definitions up to date so that our threat intelligence is very up to date when knowing what to protect against.
  • It helps us by scanning all of our infrastructure components and highlights where improvements need to be made in security so we can be proactive with our security initiatives.
  • It has automated response mechanisms to triage and resolve any potentials risks allowing us to save time in the long run.
  • Sometimes Rapid7 InsightIDR will be too locked down and without knowing will block applications and processes needed for day to day operation.
  • System scans with Rapid7 InsightIDR can be very bandwidth-heavy on the network and system resources.
  • From a recent incident, we have seen more and more false positives from Rapid7 InsightIDR on areas that we know are secure.
Rapid7 InsightIDR is best suited for environments with different types of infrastructures, cloud, virtual, and on-premise. It will easily handle each of these infrastructures and provide detailed vulnerability scans and show where security holes lie. Rapid7 InsightIDR is also best used where you are looking to automate security as it is able to program automated response and quarantine based on its virus detection.
