Information Security & GRC Expert at GLG (Gerson Lehrman Group)
As a Council Member at GLG (Gerson Lehrman Group), the world’s leading expert network, I provide organizations, investment firms, and consulting companies with expert discussions on demand – wherever specialized knowledge in information security, IT governance, and regulatory compliance is needed.
My assessments are based on many years of practical experience in highly regulated industries: from building and implementing information security management systems (ISMS according to ISO 27001), IT risk and vulnerability management, and business continuity (ISO 22301) to the practical implementation of European regulations such as DORA, NIS2, BAIT, and the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA).
The cooperation is project- and discussion-based. I provide decision-makers with a practical perspective gained from real-world experience on cyber risks, security governance, and operational resilience – exactly when it is needed.

Enrique G.
Last position:
Security Architect at Capgemini
I implemented a Zero-Trust architecture for robust, military-grade maritime container mini data centers based on VMware & Tanzu to support containerized GIS workloads for ground forces. The main focus was on securing communications, workload protection, and data access in contested electronic battle environments affected by jamming, interception, signal manipulation, and constantly changing operational conditions. I designed and architected use cases so that every element of workload, identity, and system could continue to operate independently and securely even in degraded or disrupted scenarios. In parallel, I defined the enterprise and solution security architecture with LeanIX, Bizzdesign, and HOPEX as enterprise architecture, repository, and governance platforms to maintain architecture inventory, relationships, traceability, target pictures, and security governance in complex environments. For the architectural designs, I used Sparx Enterprise Architect to describe formal architecture views, interfaces, trust boundaries, and system architecture in both IT and OT environments. IriusRisk was used for threat modeling of the solution to identify architecture-driven risks, derive security requirements, and detect countermeasures and design gaps directly from the solution models. Risk and compliance management was supported with Archer. Architecture decisions, control gaps, and operational risks were translated into controlled governance and auditable compliance measures. For documentation, collaboration, and visual design, I used Confluence to maintain Architecture Decision Records, Security Blueprints, and workflows. I used Lucidchart and draw.io to create design artifacts tailored to stakeholders. I also defined OT security concepts with support from electrical and mechanical engineers in the areas of oil, vehicle onboard systems, rail, power plants, pharma, gas turbines, and nuclear technology. I created the end-to-end OT security strategy, starting with global policy, developed into standards and procedures, and finally aligned with Bell-LaPadula, Purdue Model, SABSA, TOGAF ADM, CENELEC 50701, IEC 62443, and NIST standards. In addition, I worked with engineering team leads to identify critical KBP assets and place them under protective measures that segmented SCADA, PLC, and HMI assets. I drove collaboration between Security, IT, and OT teams to create standardized workflows and use cases for the OT security solution catalog, while integrating Defense-in-Depth and Zero-Trust principles into operational environments. A key part of my work was integrating multidisciplinary engineering, security, and operations stakeholders into a unified security blueprinting strategy and ensuring that architecture, threat modeling, governance, and documentation were technically strong and operationally practical.

About the technology
Vulnerability visibility
Rapid7 InsightVM is a risk-based vulnerability management platform for discovering assets, assessing security weaknesses and helping teams decide what to fix first. It combines asset visibility, vulnerability data, risk context and remediation tracking across on-premises, cloud and hybrid environments.
Core capabilities
InsightVM uses the Rapid7 Security Console and distributed Scan Engines to assess systems, applications, network devices and cloud assets. Strong specialists configure discovery, credentials, scan templates, sites, asset groups and dashboards while keeping scan activity aligned with operational constraints. They also work with the Rapid7 Insight platform and its reporting features.
Typical deliverables
- Build asset discovery and scanning structures for complex environments
- Configure authenticated scans and reduce false positives
- Prioritize remediation using risk context and asset importance
- Create dashboards, reports and remediation workflows for stakeholders
- Connect findings with ticketing, SIEM and orchestration tools
When expertise matters
Companies bring in freelance InsightVM professionals during vulnerability management rollouts, security assessments, platform consolidation and remediation backlogs. They can also help when scan coverage is incomplete, asset ownership is unclear or existing reports do not support clear decisions. In Germany, remote collaboration often works well, while regulated environments may require planned on-site access and clear German or English documentation.
Adjacent skills
Useful expertise around InsightVM includes network and cloud security, endpoint administration, identity and access management, configuration assessment and vulnerability research. Specialists may use APIs, automation scripts and integrations with ServiceNow, Jira, SIEM products or other security operations tooling. Knowledge of Rapid7 Nexpose is relevant because InsightVM evolved from that product line and shares important concepts.
Strong specialist signals
The strongest professionals explain why a finding matters instead of simply producing scan output. They validate coverage, understand authenticated scanning, distinguish exploitable risk from noise and turn technical results into owned remediation actions. Look for clear evidence of experience with asset modeling, scan performance, reporting, integrations and communication with security, infrastructure and business teams.
Frequently asked questions
Need clarity? These are the questions we hear most often about Rapid7 InsightVM.
Rapid7 InsightVM is used to discover assets, identify vulnerabilities and prioritize remediation by combining technical findings with risk context. Companies use it to create an ongoing view of exposure across servers, endpoints, network devices, applications and cloud environments.
Rapid7 InsightVM is the cloud-connected vulnerability risk management product that grew from the Nexpose technology and product line. Nexpose is still commonly used to describe the scanning and console heritage, while InsightVM adds broader risk analytics, reporting and integrations through the Rapid7 Insight platform.
A strong Rapid7 InsightVM freelancer usually understands network and cloud security, endpoint systems, identity controls and vulnerability remediation. API usage, scripting, ticketing integrations, SIEM workflows and security reporting are also valuable when the platform must fit an existing security operation.
The right level depends on the scope, not on the tool alone. A focused scan configuration may need a specialist who can work independently with assets and credentials, while a broader rollout calls for experience with architecture, data quality, integrations, remediation ownership and stakeholder reporting.
Rapid7 InsightVM can often be configured, reviewed and operated remotely when secure access and clear ownership are in place. On-site work may still help with restricted networks, asset validation or workshops, and companies should agree early on German or English communication and documentation requirements.
InsightVM commonly connects with service management, ticketing, SIEM, orchestration and collaboration workflows. Specialists may also use its APIs and automation options to synchronize assets, open remediation tasks, enrich findings and keep security reporting connected to operational teams.
Ask how the professional would validate asset coverage, authenticated scan results, risk prioritization and remediation ownership. A capable Rapid7 InsightVM specialist can explain trade-offs, reduce false positives, protect production systems from disruptive scans and show how findings become actionable work.
Rapid7 InsightVM expertise is useful when discovery misses assets, scans create excessive noise or teams cannot agree on remediation priorities. A specialist can structure sites and asset groups, tune scan templates, improve credentials, create useful reports and connect findings to the company’s existing processes.
The average hourly rate of freelancers in Germany who have used Rapid7 InsightVM in their recent projects is 107 €, which corresponds to a daily rate of about 854 € based on an 8-hour working day.
