| Setup tasks | Description |
|---|---|
| Verify that the Vulnerability Response application is installed and activated. | To verify that this application is activated, navigate to in your instance. The list displays the subscriptions your organization has purchased. If the application is not installed and activated see, Install Vulnerability Response. |
| Verify that you have the required ServiceNow AI Platform roles for your instance. | The following roles are required for installation, configuration, and verification of expected results. Persona and granular roles are available to help you manage what users and groups can see and do in the Vulnerability Response application. For an initial assignment of the persona roles in Setup Assistant, see Assign the Vulnerability Response persona roles using Setup Assistant. For more information about managing granular roles, see Manage persona and granular roles for Vulnerability Response.
The Rapid7 admin role is inherited when you are assigned an administrative role in the Vulnerability Response (VR) application. |
| Validate your instance sizing based on the number of vulnerable items you expect to import. | An undersized instance can lead to long load times. If you do not know the size of your instance, contact Customer Service and Support. |
| Set up filtering | Use filtering to limit the number of items for initial import and phase your deployment by adjusting filters in subsequent imports. |
| Disable Vulnerability Calculators | If you do not use vulnerability calculators, Disable the default vulnerability calculator if not used, in addition to any others you have defined. Vulnerability calculators run every time a vulnerable item record is created or updated, and can impact initial import performance. |
| Keep default value for run-as user | There is a configured run-as user for each integration record. The default value for this user is VR.System. Do not change this value. |
| Using host tags | If you plan to use host tags in Vulnerability Response Assignment or Remediation Task Rules, run the Rapid7 Asset List integration prior to creating rules. |
| Deduplicate existing data records | When migrating from the Data Warehouse integration type to the InsightVM type you can deduplicate your existing data warehouse records. See Deduplicate Rapid7 Vulnerability Integration data warehouse records for more information. |
