Legacy CyberArk ruby gem End-of-Life announcementCopy link

As of March 4, 2019, Rapid7 will start the End of Life (EOL) process for the legacy CyberArk Ruby Gem integration for Nexpose. The CyberArk Ruby Gem will no longer be publicly available for download on the rubygems.org page. As a solution, Rapid7 has already implemented an in-product integration with CyberArk. For instructions on how to configure the in-product integration, see our Creating and Managing CyberArk Credentials documentation.

This EOL announcement only pertains to future deployments or feature requests. Customers that currently have the Ruby Gem integration configured will not see changes in functionality, but Rapid7 encourages migration to the in-product integration. The new integration features the CyberArk Application Identity Manager, which allows authenticated scanning on a per-scan basis.

For more information, see our Enterprise Password Vault and Vulnerability Management (InsightVM) partner brief.
