InsightVM includes pre-defined user roles addressing core permission sets that can be customized as needed. Additional custom roles can be created and assigned to users, allowing for efficient access management.

- Protective monitoring type
- Supplier-defined controls
- Protective monitoring approach
-
We use InsightIDR to monitor for suspicious and malicious behavior across our user endpoints, networks, servers, and cloud services. Our InsightIDR configuration uses a combination of user behavior analytics, attacker behavior analytics in the form of curated threat intelligence, and custom alerts.
We only monitor systems that Rapid7 has implemented in our hosting environments and platform, not systems that customers deploy themselves within their environment. - Incident management type

There is a formal Incident Management process in place and we can provide our Incident Response policy. Incidents are handled by the Information Security team and are escalated to Rapid7's in-house Incident Response team when necessary.

Information Security partners with the MDR and Incident Response services teams to supplement Rapid7’s incident response program. InsightIDR alerts are regularly reviewed by analysts and escalated via a paging system when indications of potentially malicious activity are detected.
