What’s New
Copy link

Learn about new features across the Command Platform. These features were released over the past month and are available now:

Risk
Copy link

Risk is the potential for loss or damage to your assets, operations, or reputation due to vulnerabilities being exploited by a bad actor. Security teams must assess risk by understanding likelihood, impact, and real-world threat context.

Gain Clearer Asset Visibility with Expanded Patch and Endpoint Protection Data
Copy link

Remediation Hub now provides expanded asset-level visibility for patch management and endpoint protection coverage. You can see which solutions provide coverage for each asset, identify the source of that data, and determine whether a reboot is still required after patching. This information is available in remediation details, filters, exports, and Automation (InsightConnect) workflows.

With this update in Risk > Remediation Hub, you can:

  • See the source of endpoint protection and patch management coverage for each asset.
  • Identify assets that still require a reboot after patching.
  • Filter and export data to quickly find and share assets that need follow-up action.

Remediate Faster with Targeted Filtering in Remediation Hub
Copy link

Remediation Hub now includes enhanced filtering with resource type and categorized filters. Categorized filters help you distinguish between those that apply to all assets and those specific to Vulnerability Management (InsightVM) or Cloud Security (InsightCloudSec), making it easier to find and apply the right filters.

With this capability in Risk > Remediation Hub, you can:

  • Prioritize newly disclosed vulnerabilities using CVE publish date filters.
  • Quickly identify relevant filters with category-based organization.
  • Focus on the most relevant assets by filtering by resource type.
  • Navigate filters more efficiently with improved structure.

Threat
Copy link

A threat is any potential event or action that could exploit vulnerabilities in a system, causing harm to assets, data, or operations. Threats can originate from malicious actors, compromised identities, or misconfigurations.

You can now move directly from Threat Intelligence (Intelligence Hub) to Log Search without manually building queries. From Campaign and Threat Actor profiles, SIEM (InsightIDR) automatically generates and opens pre-filled queries with the relevant indicators of compromise (IOCs), mapped log sources, and time ranges.

With this capability in Command Platform > Intelligence > Campaigns and Command Platform > Intelligence > Threat Actors, you can:

  • Launch ready-to-run log searches with automatically generated queries based on selected IOCs.
  • Improve hunt accuracy using standardized queries grouped by IOC type, such as IP addresses, domains, and file hashes.
  • Reduce manual effort and errors by eliminating the need to copy, map, and format indicators across log sources.
  • Move from intelligence to investigation in seconds, improving analyst efficiency and response time.

Prioritize CVEs Faster with Rapid7 Labs Technical Assessments
Copy link

Rapid7 Labs technical assessments are now embedded directly in CVE Library, giving your team clear, analyst-backed insight into how vulnerabilities are exploited and why they matter. Instead of piecing together external research, you can now evaluate exploitability, attacker value, and real-world risk in one place.

With this capability in Command Platform > Intelligence > CVE Library, you can:

  • Access Rapid7 Labs technical assessments for notable CVEs directly within each CVE record.
  • Understand why a vulnerability matters using structured signals like exploitability, attacker value, and exposure conditions.
  • Prioritize remediation faster with analyst narrative, affected product details, and real-world risk context.

Improve Data Reliability with Platform-Native Vulnerability Management (InsightVM) Integration
Copy link

Vulnerability Management (InsightVM) data now flows into SIEM (InsightIDR) through a platform-native integration powered by the Rapid7 data mesh. This update removes the need for manual configuration, improves reliability, and ensures consistent vulnerability context across SIEM (InsightIDR), MDR/MTC, and Incident Command without impacting existing functionality.

With this capability, you can:

  • Automatically access Vulnerability Management (InsightVM) data in SIEM (InsightIDR) without additional setup.
  • Reduce configuration issues and ongoing maintenance.
  • Ensure vulnerability context in SIEM (InsightIDR) aligns with Vulnerability Management (InsightVM) data.
  • Continue using existing features and customizations without changes.

Top of page

Improve Triage for Multi-Vector and Thresholded Detections with Full Alert Context
Copy link

SIEM (InsightIDR) now preserves and displays additional contributing payloads for multi-vector and thresholded detections, instead of showing only the final triggering event. This gives SOC analysts full visibility into the activity behind complex detections.

With this update in Alert Details > View in Log Search, you can:

  • See additional evidence that contributed to a multi-vector or thresholded detection.
  • Triage complex alerts faster with clearer context.
  • Reduce ambiguity, false positives, and investigation time.

This enhancement improves analyst confidence and trust by ensuring detection context is complete from detection through response.

Top of page

Create and Deploy Detections as Code in SIEM (InsightIDR)
Copy link

You can now create, validate, and deploy detections as code in SIEM (InsightIDR) using Terraform. This capability enables security teams to define detection logic in a version-controlled workflow, validate detections before deployment, and promote them across environments. By treating detections as software, you can improve consistency across tenants, reduce configuration drift, and accelerate time to detection.

With this capability, you can:

  • Define and manage detections using Terraform in your existing CI/CD workflows.
  • Deploy and manage custom detections without relying on manual UI configuration.
  • Promote detections consistently across single- and multi-tenant environments.
  • Maintain auditability and version control for detection changes.
  • Create up to 200 custom detection rules, up from the previous default of 50.

Copy link

Software release date: May 19, 2026 | Release notes published: May 18, 2026

Improved

  • Enhanced encryption detection for Azure Database for MySQL Flexible Server and Azure Database for PostgreSQL Flexible Server resources to accurately identify when Customer Managed Keys (CMK) are configured using Azure Key Vault, and to capture the associated key vault and key name details for these resources.
  • Improved page load performance for the Scheduled Events Event History page when loading large amounts of historical event data.
  • Improved retry logic for Azure resource tag creation.
  • Enhanced paginated insights table to enable sorting for total findings, exemptions, and favorites.

New Resources

  • OCI PostgreSQL Database Systems: Added support for harvesting PostgreSQL Database Systems resources from Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) environments.
    • Harvester: PostgreSQLDatabaseSystemHarvester
  • Azure Elastic SAN: Added support for Azure Elastic SAN resources, enabling visibility into Storage Area Networks and their associated volume groups. Enhanced security posture monitoring by collecting public network accessibility settings and encryption key configuration for Elastic SAN resources to support CIS Azure Storage Services benchmark compliance checks.
    • Reader Permissions Required:
      • Microsoft.ElasticSan/elasticSans/read
      • Microsoft.ElasticSan/elasticSans/volumeGroups/read
    • Note: To harvest the encryption key used to encrypt a volume group correctly, there must be an access policy on the key vault for all key operations and cryptographic operations for the Azure application used to onboard the Azure account.

New Insights

  • Web App Without Managed Platform Updates Fully Configured: Identifies AWS Elastic Beanstalk environments that do not have managed platform update settings enabled, update level set to ‘minor and patch’, and instance replacement enabled.

Updated Insights

  • Container Service With Auto Assign Public IP: Updated security mappings to better align with official security benchmarks.

New Query Filters

  • Web Apps Without Managed Platform Updates Fully Configured: Identifies AWS Elastic Beanstalk environments that do not have managed platform update settings enabled, update level set to ‘minor and patch’, and instance replacement enabled.

Fixed

  • Fixed a potential DetachedInstanceError in the AWS Collector Harvester Checker that could occur when accessing organization service attributes after the database session was closed.
  • Fixed a server error when creating exemption rules caused by accessing the rule ID after the database session was closed.
  • Fixed a crash in the Azure Data Collection Rule harvester when a DCR does not have a destinations field in its properties. These DCRs are now harvested successfully with exports_to_monitor_metrics set to False.
  • Fixed an issue where JWT tokens using unsupported algorithms (for example, from automated scanners) would cause unhandled 500 errors. These requests now correctly return 401 Unauthorized responses.
  • Fixed an issue where Azure API Management resource harvesting would fail if the service was in an ActivationFailed state. The harvester now gracefully skips subscription retrieval for degraded APIM services instead of failing the entire harvest job.
  • Fixed a duplicate key error in exemption curation that occurred when concurrent workers attempted to insert the same exemption. The persist logic now gracefully handles race conditions by falling back to individual inserts on conflict.
  • Fixed a duplicate key error in the harvester modify path that occurred when merging child records (for example, RulePortRanges) that already existed in the database. The modify logic now retries on conflict after rollback.
  • Fixed a MySQL “Commands out of sync” error in the InstanceFlavor harvester caused by a lazy-loaded relationship triggering a query during result streaming. Resources that do not support ResourceCommonData are now correctly skipped when checking for default resources.
  • Fixed the “Force Delete Instance” bot action failing to terminate AWS EC2 instances that have termination protection enabled. The action now correctly detects the termination protection error, automatically disables it, and retries the termination as originally intended. This fix applies to both AWS commercial and GovCloud environments.
  • Fixed an issue where CVE details failed to load in the general vulnerability tab after visiting a resource-specific view.
  • Fixed an issue with GCP DomainUserHarvester and GCP DomainGroupHarvester failing with HttpError 400 "Invalid Input" when calling the Google Admin Directory API.
  • Fixed a timeout issue on the Scheduled Events Event History page that occurred when loading large amounts of historical event data.

Copy link

Software release date: May 12, 2026 | Release notes published: May 11, 2026

Important

  • Oracle Cloud Vault and Secret Resource Identification: Changed the Oracle Cloud backend format for Vaults and Secrets. The new format uses: {vault_display_name}.{vault_id} for Vaults and {secret_name}{vault_id} for Secrets. This change ensures global uniqueness and correct parent-child relationships.
    • Impact: All existing Vaults and Secrets will be considered new resources after the initial harvest once this version has been deployed. Bots, alerts, or integrations may be triggered if configured to act on newly discovered resources.

Improved

  • Improved database connection pool recycling for harvesting operations to enhance overall system stability and efficiency.
  • Updated Azure, GCP, OCI, and AliCloud onboarding scripts to provide standalone permission update support. AWS support was already available.
  • Updated the Display by: Resource view on the Misconfigurations page to allow for selecting whether to show only Insights within a specific Insight Pack or all insights a resource is flagged with. A new toggle allows switching between the two views, with the default being to show only insights belonging to the pack you are scoped to.
  • Added “Cloud Vendor Managed” column (true/false) to Kubernetes namespace scoped resources for better visibility and filtering.
  • Added a filter in the Vulnerabilities -> Resources tab to filter only resources that have vulnerabilities.

New Query Filters

  • Kubernetes Resources Managed by Cloud Vendor: Identifies Kubernetes Resources managed by cloud vendors with a not_in option to filter out or include cloud vendor managed Kubernetes resources.

Fixed

  • Fixed an issue where creating a vulnerability email subscription would fail with a session error, preventing the subscription from being saved.
  • Fixed an error during exemption rule processing that could cause resource harvesting to fail with a database session error.
  • Fixed an IaC v3 scanner bug where Database Instance Not Encrypted was being incorrectly flagged when a Cluster Instance is attached to an encrypted cluster.
  • Fixed performance issues with Attack Path Analysis job execution that caused timeouts and extended processing times. Optimized database queries and internal data processing to reduce job runtime by approximately 75% in large environments.
  • Fixed delete button on IaC Managed Run tasks UI, added descriptive text, and moved the pop-out confirmation to a modal dialog.
  • Fixed false positive bug by adding origin information on AWS::CloudFront::Distribution resources for Content Delivery Network Without Origin Access Control insight.
