Rapid7 InsightIDR is a cloud-based threat detection and response platform that identifies and investigates security incidents using behavioral analytics.
Summary
Rapid7 InsightIDR is a commercial SIEMSIEMSecurity information and event management, collecting logs from many systems and correlating events to find suspicious activity. Analysts use it to investigate alerts and incidents. tool that centralizes log search, endpoint forensics, and authentication monitoring to detect unauthorized access and suspicious activity. It runs as SaaSSaaSSoftware delivered over the internet and run on the provider's infrastructure, so the buyer pays a subscription instead of installing or operating anything locally., hosted on AWS, with an on-premises Collector aggregating network, log, and authentication data before it is sent to Rapid7 for analysis, and an agent can be installed on endpoints for real-time data collection. It targets SOCSOCA security operations center, the team or function that monitors threats, investigates alerts and coordinates incident response. Its work can be internal, outsourced or shared. analysts and incident response teams who need a single place to correlate users, accounts, and alerts rather than searching through raw data streams by hand. Rapid7 packages it in three tiers, from basic compliance-oriented monitoring up to full extended detection and responseextended detection and responseExtended detection and response, combining signals and investigation across endpoints, networks, identities or cloud services. It helps analysts connect activity that separate tools might miss., so buyers can scale their use as needs grow. Launched in 2016, it continues to receive feature updates, including identity context added to endpoint process events.

How Rapid7 InsightIDR helps
Who logged in to this host from somewhere they never have before?
correlates authentication logs across accounts and endpoints to surface access patterns that break from a user's normal behavior, flagging suspicious logins for review
Which process on an endpoint was actually run by which user?
attaches the LDAP or Active Directory identity to process start events, so an alert shows the account behind the activity rather than just a hostname
Is there unauthorized access hiding in the flood of network and log data?
aggregates network, authentication, and endpoint telemetry at a central collector and runs analytics that highlight indicators of compromise instead of leaving it to manual search
Where do I look first when investigating an incident across users, accounts, and alerts?
puts endpoint forensics, log search, and dashboards in one place so an analyst can correlate a user, account, and alert without switching between raw data streams
What happened on an endpoint in real time during a suspected compromise?
an agent installed on the asset streams live endpoint data back for investigation, rather than relying only on periodically collected logs
Can I get a fast read on my environment's current risk without digging through every alert?
surfaces a summary card on the detection and response dashboard that gives an overview of the environment's state for a quick first look

Five scores for Rapid7 InsightIDR, each built from the releases, notes and API history this site tracks — and, on Researcher and Business, where it stands among every measured tool in its category and how that has moved.
Score cards are part of every paid plan.

Blank means never measured; nothing here is a filled-in zero.

See plans →Each score is 0–100 on a published rubric, derived from data this site already shows. A dimension we cannot measure says so — it is never scored 0 and never enters a rank.
How this is scored
- Shipping velocity — releases a month over the last 12 months, on a log scale where 16 a month scores 100. Needs 3 releases in the window.
- Documentation quality — the release-notes rubric published on the analytics page, unchanged.
- Breaking-change discipline — the share of releases carrying a breaking change (none scores 100, half or more scores 0). Only projects that label breaking changes are measured: a clean record cannot be told from an unlabelled one.
- Maintenance risk — quiet time measured against the tool's own release cadence (quiet longer than 90 days and three typical gaps scores 0), plus the number of active maintainers and whether contributors are growing, where known. Higher is lower risk.
- Innovation & surface — new capabilities in the feature ledger this year, API and MCP operations added, and the share of commits that are features: the mean of whichever we hold.
- Community health (open-source tools only) — each is a direction, not a size: contributors this year against last, the bus factor now against a year ago, and issues closed per issue opened, where steady scores 50, doubled 100 and halved 0; plus the median time to a maintainer's first reply (an hour scores about 100, a month or more 0). A commercial card has no repository and carries none of the four.
- Documented delivery (commercial tools) — when a vendor's documented new capabilities have slowed against its own baseline, that counts against the overall standing as heavily as two low dimensions. Steady delivery, or too little history to judge, leaves the standing alone; it is never a sixth score.
- Open-source tools are scored on repository signals; commercial tools on their published changelog. Ranks compare tools within one category and one profile and need at least five measured peers; the overall standing needs three ranked dimensions. Best-in-breed or consolidator is a shape, not a quality, and is never scored.

Plan relaunches
Plans, prices and descriptions are quoted from the vendor's own pricing page as we read it on each date. A plan missing from a later reading is shown as no longer listed on the page — a statement about the page, not the product. Readings that failed to show any plans are left out rather than read as a change.
