In a scenario involving the tool and preventing potential security breaches, let's consider a case where a security feature is deployed using Rapid7 InsightAppSec. Although I haven't personally experienced this, I can provide an example. Suppose there is a vulnerability in WordPress or Apache servers, and it identifies a new one-level zero-day attack template associated with it. In this case, it may have detected this vulnerability three months after its initial occurrence. We utilize dynamic application security testing. It involves deploying an application by onboarding it onto a device, which is then linked to the application. The notable aspect is that we don't need to maintain a server for this process. Instead, we simply log in and configure Splunk Enterprise to connect with the product. There is no need to deploy a separate server. It provides clear, step-by-step instructions, including the provision of a dynamic key by the application, making it easy to implement with documentation. I rate it an eight out of ten.

Rapid7 just came out with a new package called Cloud Risk Complete, which gives us unlimited insight into scanning and unlimited AppSec scanning. It also gives us InsightCloudSec. The product can do everything. We are struggling to get our DevOps team to commit to utilizing our web application scanners. We are siloed with it. Overall, I rate the product an eight out of ten.

You need to understand its capabilities. It has good capabilities, but its capabilities and features can be improved. I would rate it an eight out of ten.

When you want to buy a tool, the main thing is whether it meets the requirements based on your business needs. In my previous company, I was in the financial sector, which has a lot of PCI transactions, et cetera. Now, I am in the media industry, and we don't have PCI transactions. It all depends on what kind of business you have, what are the requirements, and whether the product meets your requirements. For our needs, Rapid7 was the ideal go-to tool. Based on the budget, pricing, and features, we went for Rapid7. I would rate it a nine out of ten.

This is a product that I recommend and my advice for anybody who is interested in trying it, there is a free 60-day trial period where they will fix your problems without any payment. That will give you the opportunity to experiment with and gain experience scanning web applications. I would rate this solution a ten out of ten.

I'm not sure of what version of the solution we had been using at our organization previously. As of right now, the license has expired on Rapid7. We haven't been using it for about one month. It hasn't been too long since we stopped with regular usage. We used Rapid7's cloud when we were running the program. We had a team of about five or six people that had access to the product when we were using it. If a company needs an effective product for web scanning, I can recommend this product. It's a great product. We found it to be quite effective in that regard. However, it did not help us to understand the web availability. This was something it lacked. I would rate the solution eight out of ten.

Give it a try. It exceeds my expectations, and I'm curious to see what else they can release.
