The Rapid7 Insight VM Report data connector provides the capability to ingest Scan reports and vulnerability data into Microsoft Sentinel through the REST API from the Rapid7 Insight platform (Managed in the cloud). Refer to API documentation for more information. The connector provides ability to get events which helps to examine potential security risks, analyze your team's use of collaboration, diagnose configuration problems and more.

Tables Ingested

This connector ingests data into the following tables:

Table	Transformations	Ingestion API	Lake-Only
`NexposeInsightVMCloud_assets_CL` 🔶	✗	✓	✗
`NexposeInsightVMCloud_vulnerabilities_CL` 🔶	✗	✓	✗

💡 Tip: Tables with Ingestion API support allow data ingestion via the Azure Monitor Data Collector API, which also enables custom transformations during ingestion.

Permissions

Resource Provider Permissions:

Workspace (Workspace): read and write permissions on the workspace are required.
Keys (Workspace): read permissions to shared keys for the workspace are required. See the documentation to learn more about workspace keys.

Custom Permissions:

Microsoft.Web/sites permissions: Read and write permissions to Azure Functions to create a Function App is required. See the documentation to learn more about Azure Functions.
REST API Credentials: InsightVMAPIKey is required for REST API. See the documentation to learn more about API. Check all requirements and follow the instructions for obtaining credentials

Setup Instructions

⚠️ Note: These instructions were automatically generated from the connector's user interface definition file using AI and may not be fully accurate. Please verify all configuration steps in the Microsoft Sentinel portal.

NOTE: This connector uses Azure Functions to connect to the Insight VM API to pull its logs into Microsoft Sentinel. This might result in additional data ingestion costs. Check the Azure Functions pricing page for details.

(Optional Step) Securely store workspace and API authorization key(s) or token(s) in Azure Key Vault. Azure Key Vault provides a secure mechanism to store and retrieve key values. Follow these instructions to use Azure Key Vault with an Azure Function App.

NOTE: This data connector depends on a parsers based on a Kusto Function to work as expected InsightVMAssets and InsightVMVulnerabilities which is deployed with the Microsoft Sentinel Solution.

STEP 1 - Configuration steps for the Insight VM Cloud

Follow the instructions to obtain the credentials.

STEP 2 - Choose ONE from the following two deployment options to deploy the connector and the associated Azure Function

IMPORTANT: Before deploying the Workspace data connector, have the Workspace ID and Workspace Primary Key (can be copied from the following).

Workspace ID: WorkspaceId

Note: The value above is dynamically provided when these instructions are presented within Microsoft Sentinel.
Primary Key: PrimaryKey

Note: The value above is dynamically provided when these instructions are presented within Microsoft Sentinel.

Option 1 - Azure Resource Manager (ARM) Template

Use this method for automated deployment of the Rapid7 Insight Vulnerability Management Report data connector using an ARM Tempate.

Click the Deploy to Azure button below.
Select the preferred Subscription, Resource Group and Location.

NOTE: Within the same resource group, you can't mix Windows and Linux apps in the same region. Select existing resource group without Windows apps in it or create new resource group.

Enter the InsightVMAPIKey, choose InsightVMCloudRegion and deploy.
Mark the checkbox labeled I agree to the terms and conditions stated above.
Click Purchase to deploy.

Option 2 - Manual Deployment of Azure Functions

Use the following step-by-step instructions to deploy the Rapid7 Insight Vulnerability Management Report data connector manually with Azure Functions (Deployment via Visual Studio Code). Step 1 - Deploy a Function App

1. Download the [Azure Function App](https://github.com/Azure/Azure-Sentinel/raw/master/Solutions/Rapid7InsightVM/Data%20Connectors/InsightVMCloudAPISentinelConn.zip) file. Extract archive to your local development computer.

Follow the function app manual deployment instructions to deploy the Azure Functions app using VSCode.
After successful deployment of the function app, follow next steps for configuring it.

Step 2 - Configure the Function App
1. Go to Azure Portal for the Function App configuration.
In the Function App, select the Function App Name and select Configuration.
In the Application settings tab, select New application setting.
Add each of the following application settings individually, with their respective string values (case-sensitive):
InsightVMAPIKey InsightVMCloudRegion WorkspaceID WorkspaceKey logAnalyticsUri (optional)

Once all application settings have been entered, click Save.

Use logAnalyticsUri to override the log analytics API endpoint for dedicated cloud. For example, for public cloud, leave the value empty; for Azure GovUS cloud environment, specify the value in the following format: https://<CustomerId>.ods.opinsights.azure.us.
