All of the data processed and stored is encrypted at rest using various file or disk level encryption mechanisms. Data is encrypted using industry standard AES-256 encryption with keys managed through AWS’s Key Management Service (KMS). Where possible, Rapid7 utilizes AWS’s services to manage encryption at rest (e.g. S3, EBS, RDS, etc.). When not possible, Rapid7 utilizes block level encryption provided by LUKS.

Block level encryption is used for ElasticSearch (only used to index some asset metadata). For all other persistence technologies/layers, AWS KMS is used.

Data importing and exporting

Data export approach
InsightVM supports data exports, real-time alerts, scripted API integrations to deliver results and coordinate activity between these solutions. Depending on the type of integration desired and the solution in place, InsightVM data can be delivered and custom functionality can be created enabling integrations.
InsightVM provides a variety of reports in parseable formats. Reports can be created for human delivery in PDF, RTF, Text, HTML, and XML, or in parseable formats including CSV export, a variety of XML exports, and direct-to-database export. Report content is based on the report template selected as well as filter criteria for vulnerability types and severities.

Availability and resilience

Guaranteed availability
During the term of Customer’s subscription, the Service will perform in accordance with and subject to the Service Level Agreement (“SLA”) documented at https://www.rapid7.com/legal/sla/. Rapid7’s target is 100% System Availability. If the System Availability during a given month is less than 99.95%, Customer may be eligible for a credit as detailed below (“Service Credit”), which is the sole and exclusive remedy for any failure to meet the SLA.
Approach to resilience
Rapid7 maintains a Business Continuity Plan for the Insight platform. The primary goal of this plan is to ensure organizational stability, as well as coordinate recovery of critical business functions in managing and supporting business recovery in the event of disruption or disaster. Thus, the plan accomplishes the following:
Ensures critical functions can continue during and after a disaster with minimal interruption;
Identifies and decreases potential threats and exposures; and
Promotes awareness of critical interdependencies.
We can share a high-level overview of our Business Continuity Plan for the Insight platform upon request.

Identity and authentication

User authentication needed
Yes
User authentication
  • 2-factor authentication
  • Other
Other user authentication
InsightVM provides an internal authentication mechanism as well as integration with external authentication sources for authentication, minimizing user management overhead. Authorized permissions are determined by a user’s assigned role-based access control (RBAC).
The application provides single-sign-on authentication with the following sources:
• LDAP (including Microsoft Active Directory)
• Kerberos
• SAML 2.0 via external identity provider (IdP-initiated login only)
The application also continues to support its two internal user account stores:
• XML file lists default “built-in” accounts.
• Datastore lists standard user accounts, which are created by a global administrator.
Access restrictions in management interfaces and support channels
InsightVM provides comprehensive role-based access controls (RBACs) that govern functionality such as scanning capabilities, scan configuration creation/modification, asset grouping, reporting, administrative functions, and other settings. Along with functional access controls, RBAC extends to visibility of scan target assets. Users can only view scan or report data on those devices or collections of devices to which they have access. 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.
For additional information regarding roles and permissions, please refer to: https://insightvm.help.rapid7.com/docs/managing-users-and-authentication.

Information security policies and processes
The Information Security and Information Technology groups are responsible for monitoring compliance with data security policies and procedures. Users found in violation of information security policies may be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including 1) removal from any access to company or customer assets, data, or systems, 2) termination of employment, and/or 3) legal action. When required, Information Security will work with Legal and People Strategy to address any instance of non-compliance.

We use a SaaS product to manage and control relevant Information Security policies, which includes version control editors and full audit history. Rapid7 employment policies are documented in an internal employee handbook.

Operational security

Configuration and change management standard
Supplier-defined controls
Configuration and change management approach
Rapid7 applies a systematic approach to managing change so that changes to services impacting Rapid7 and our customers are reviewed, tested, approved, and well communicated. Separate change management processes are in place for corporate IT systems and Insight platform systems to ensure changes are tailored to the specifics of each environment. The goal of Rapid7’s change management process is to prevent unintended service disruptions and to maintain the integrity of services provided to customers. All changes deployed to production undergo a review, testing, and approval process.
Vulnerability management type
Supplier-defined controls
Vulnerability management approach
The Information Security team is continuously monitoring the Rapid7 network and our product environments in accordance with formally documented vulnerability management processes and procedures. Information Security conducts vulnerability scans on a continuous basis, at least weekly. Rapid7 begins immediate action following the identification of critical vulnerabilities and generally completes the process in well under 48 hours.
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
Supplier-defined controls
Incident management approach
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.

Rapid7 uses InsightIDR to monitor on-premises and cloud environments for security incidents. 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.
