This would take out the "single point of failure" we currently have, if the email recipient is somehow absent, in recording the risk appetite for the incident and the actions taken to mitigate or not."
"The searching feature in Rapid7 InsightIDR needs to evolve"
"The APIs can be further improved in Rapid7."
"The integration capabilities of the solution have certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
