Move over, macros — automated login is here.
At Rapid7, we know the most powerful tools in your security portfolio are the ones that help you understand your risks quickly. With our new automated login for InsightAppSec, you can access and scan even the most complex, modern applications quickly and easily. That means you'll spend less time worrying about whether your scans are authenticating and more time assessing and responding to vulnerabilities.
In the world before automated login — we'll call these the dark ages — security professionals needed to write scripts and rely on macros to navigate more complex applications with their many layers of authentication. This has always been a time-consuming process that takes resources away from the work of identifying and remediating vulnerabilities.
InsightAppSec with automated authentication analyzes and identifies the login pages, enters the credentials, and logs in to the app automatically. Then, it provides you with a confidence score so you're sure it's been logged in successfully. Fewer confusing steps, fewer macros — just more understanding of risk from the restricted parts of your web applications.

We've also improved secondary navigation to include new, more logical groupings, making settings easier to find.
The process couldn't be easier. Simply choose the application you wish to scan from the InsightAppSec All Apps page, open Scan Config, and select Automated Authentication from the ..
